Today marks the last day of school. Although it was a very difficult year with a lot of obstacles, we still managed to overcome them together as a community. I will miss all of you very dearly and wish you nothing but the best.
To make the coloured pasta, simply add pasta and paint to a ziplock bag, shake and let them dry. Then cut out a shape of an egg on a cardboard paper and let the children express their creativity.
Easter Egg Tracing
Help your child improve his pre-writing skills by printing these easter eggs. Encourage the child to hold the pencil or crayon properly and trace over the lines. Click here to download the free printables.
Easter Egg letter salt tray
Print lowercase letter flashcards on a shape of an egg (you can also make them youself) and then make a salt tray (using a flat surface container and salt). Encourage the child to say the letter and then write it in the sand tray.
Toilet Paper Rabbits
Make the template of the bunny using 3 rolls and gluing them on a plate like the picture above. Then use some white pate and paste it on a coloured paper.
Children are very curious and they constantly want to explore the world around them. Science Experiments are a fantastic way to help your children learn more.
Here are some mind blowing science experiments you can easily do at home. Enjoy!
Here are some fun activities which help develop the pincer grasp, hand-eye co-ordination and fine-motor skills while also having some fun.
Play-dough and drinking straws
write different letters on play-dough and encourage the child to trace the letter with cut-up straws. (Make sure that the letter is large enough to still be recognisable when traved with the straws).
Blocks
Children can’t get enough of blocks. Improve their literacy skills by encouraging them to build letters using blocks. Click here to get free printable letter cards.
DIY Salt Tray
Get an empty tray.
Tape different coloured sheets on the bottom of the tray.
Add salt to the tray. (Optional: add food colouring to the salt).
Make flashcards containing numbers or letters.
Encourage the child to write the letter/number in the salt tray, either using their fingers/unsharpened pencil in order to practice writing.
