The Distance Learning Packet this week included lots of fun surprises and activities!
Watercolor paints and stickers were provided to create special Easter cards.
Washi Tape and circle stickers provided some good fine motor practice while decorating oval eggs.
Matching bunny tails was a big hit too!
The jelly bean match up was a quick practice in color matching with a fun treat at the end. Counting bunny crackers too!
The mystery can was full of veggies and the match up sheet was fun practice naming different vegetables and fruits, sorting by color and type!
A baggie of eggs that were filled with different movement activities provided some fun outside or inside!
Our Zoom toddler music class was so much fun with Ms. Joanie!
The toddlers shape study this month is the oval. We have done lots of oval egg crafts and activities this month. We have decorated an egg with washi tape, done an egg jelly bean match, and then of course an egg hunt!
Bunnies hop into our spring curriculum as well. A ride on the big slide is fun for all!
Our discovery bins, sensory bin, and home living center focused on the garden and its bounty. The bbq grill and veggies made for fun pretend “grill outs”.
Fine motor skills: lacing flowers!
Working on one more page of our color book. We are putting the pages together for an end of year keepsake.
St. Patrick’s Day celebrations start out with a sensory bin of water beads, gold coins, and scoops.
We created leprechaun beards by painting with a fork.
We heard the leprechaun was running around Creative Tots. The toddler class traveled to the studio to look for him and found gold coins! We practiced finding and counting treasure.
We continued with our study of green by creating a “green tent” for our color book.
Moving into spring with a sensory bin filled with eggs, butterflies, bunnies, and flowers. Some children practiced scooping while others sorted by color or type. The older children began to make patterns (a pre-literacy and math skill).
Matching Eggs…
Matching jelly beans. Practice with one to one correspondence and color matching. Also, an exercise in patience. We had to match them all before we got to eat one as a treat.
Some fine motor skills are practiced when creating washi tape eggs.
Chalk eggs for our new easel.
Gross motor practice….Feed the bunny.
Painting feet for footprint bunnies.
We wrapped up our unit on oviparous animals (animals that lay eggs) with a visit from the Cincinnati Museum Center.
Creative Tots has specialized in the private education of both toddlers and preschool age children for over 15 years. We began in the heart of Madeira and now also have a new Mason location. We are specifically designed to focus on early childhood development for children ages 18 months to 5 years.
