Tot School: new activities
May. 8, 2009 • 9:24 PM
We had some fun new activities with TOT School recently!
This was a fun project I got from my blogging friend Angels of Heart!
This activity is simply to count the number of chicks on the given card and then place that many chicks with the card. I helped her with this and she counted with me. She should be able to do this one on her own next Spring.
We did a color match activity that is also great for fine motor skills. This wonderful idea came from the TOTally Tots site. I love this colored paper clips idea. We keep it in a ziplock bag and I often grab it for our Bible bag and the "littles" quietly work on it while sitting in the church pew.
She did a picture match-up using the My First Lotto game.
My toddler, "Precious" and her brother, "Peanut" each colored a new juice cup! Then used them for lunch. They thought they were neat. They were purchased at OrientalTrading.com.
They also had fun outside a day with a friend, while the older siblings worked on their Old Testament Lapbooks.
And... we did another new color-matching activity that is a favorite with my kids. Everytime I put it away (It is still in reach) they get it out again to do! This great idea came from Montessori Journey.
All the supplies were bought at the Dollar General Store for $1 each. (Total for everything together was $3) I might go back for more flower cubes to have more for the children to count out.
I thank all the wonderful blogs I mentioned for these great ideas! You'll find many more ideas for fun activities to do with toddlers when you check out the other TOT SCHOOL particiapants!
