These beautiful rocks are from last summer (2019). We painted these in Turkey in grandma’s home and then gave them to grandma as a gift. Now they are making grandma’s cactuses more cuter.
This is one of the simplest sensory play. You don’t need many things to create a sensory setup. And I can say that ocean theme always works great for both girls and boys.
It is on your hands to make your place a more beautiful place to live. We made a few pompoms and hanged them on the window. It has been the source of happiness for us for the last 3 days. You should show your kids that they can make themselves happy with just a few simple touches. ๐๐๐
This is a great art project for kids. If you want, you can use other colors, as well but our choice was black for the paper.
If you haven’t colored pasta yet, you should prepare very soon. You can create amazing sensory play setups and make amazing art with them. We used colored pasta to create amazing sea animals. It was both art and fine motor exercise.
There are many ways of preparing DIY puzzles. You can use cardboards, popsicle sticks, papers, fabrics etc. I had prepared these puzzle 3 years ago (in 2017) for MB when he was almost 3 yo. Now OT is playing with them. You can guess how happy and emotional I am๐ It is good that using popsicle sticks makes it very durable.
Winter is always dark and cold in Finland. That’s why you can see led lights and candles everywhere during winter time. These paper lanterns are super simple and you don’t need so many things to create one for your room.
We made viruses from playdough and toothpicks and talked about it. How did you explain this pandemic (corona virus) to your little ones?
I think the easiest way of explaining is to embody it.
We made creations out of free art. MB and Omer Taha made paintings a few days ago and we decided to turn them into cute bugs. ๐ Aren’t they so pretty?
You can prepare an amazing rescue game with yarn and toys. No need to use only dinos, you can use also cars, animals, wooden blocks etc. It is very nice scissors exercise and a great way of teaching the kids to help others. ๐
