Hello! I've been trying to prepare more materials in trays, and having toys set-up to invite the kids to play. Its been quite handy to have some trays prepared each day, especially during transition periods (eg. waiting for meals to be prepared, when they can get really grumpy if they are hungry). While it does take time to prepare them, I find it gets faster and easier when you get the hang of it, and have your materials organized.
Here's five more set-ups/trays that we had this week:
:: Collage making tray: Both boys enjoyed this activity very much, even Lil J who spent more time applying glue all over his paper and the table, rather than pasting stuff!
:: Stencils tray: This was one of Junior J's activities during Lil J's nap time.
:: Stamping tray: Surprisingly, Lil J caught on to this pretty fast, and both had a fun time identifying the emotions on the stamps. Lil J was most amused by the angry expression!
:: Food preparation: I set up cutting boards, plates and play vegetables for the kids to explore with. They spent a long time "cooking" (especially Lil J who loves to "cook"!) and chopping up stuff, and pouring drinks for each other.
What have your kids been up to this week? Have a blessed weekend, folks!
