Activités pour le Préscolaire: Une coccinelle printanière fait à partir d'un bouchon d'aérosol D'une facilité désarmante, j'ai fait une coccinelle à partir du bouchon du contenant de crème à raser que j'ai vidé cette semaine. Aucun gaspillage! On recyle. J'ai simplement collé des pompons noirs pour les pois, des yeux mobiles et deux bouts de ficelle noire pour les antennes. J'avais déjà en ma possession des fleurs et des feuilles de feutrines. J'ai donc collé la coccinelle sur les feuilles pour qu'elle puisse s'y reposer et profiter du joli soleil printanier (dans mes rêves). :) Bon bricolage!

Summer Nature Crafts and Activities for Young ChildrenRhythm of the Home The summer is a time for children to ‘breathe out’ after a busy year of focused work and activity. For this reason, I recommend keeping the season as relaxed and carefree as possible while doing your best to keep a healthy rhythm to your day that the children can depend on. This daily rhythm will look different for each family but your day should include as much outdoor time as possible along with periods of both active outward play and quiet inward focus. Following are some fun ways to incorporate seasonal crafting and fun activities into your summer plans, taken from the Little Acorn Learning childcare guides. Have fun, celebrate and enjoy this beautiful season with your children! Ask each child to bring in an empty orange juice or milk jug container. Organic or Homegrown Rose Petals (no pesticides) Food Processor Waxed Paper Pot Place petals into food processor and run until they are ground up. These beads should be handled with care and should not get wet.
Summer time crafts I have been trying to sneak some learning into our Summer fun this year. I grabbed this book at the library and it created the perfect opportunity for us to go explore a Pond. While the book is geared towards preschool age children, I got my boys (6 and 8) involved by helping to read the book to my toddler. Pond Walk by Nancy Elizabeth Wallace I also made this little Pond Scavenger Hunt worksheet for our trip to the Pond. (This worksheet is for educational purposes only. We first visited a small man made pond at a local Village shopping center (Gardner Village). My kids got up close and personal and noticed some tadpoles and small fish in the water. It was the perfect small outing for a Sunday afternoon and it got my kids pumped up to explore something bigger. Our next adventure was at Willow Pond in Murray, Utah. Some of our favorites... Beautiful, blue dragonflies. Lots of Mommy and baby ducks. "Look Mom, I caught a little fish!" Want to keep up to date on our adventures?
Bugs We had fun today being inspired by the famous Eric Carle book "The Very Hungry Caterpillar". I've seen some awesome caterpillar prints around blog land lately using a balloon and thought my boys would really enjoy this technique. Before we actually painted our caterpillars we had fun making one out of our balloons first. Don't you just love how kids find joy in the simplest of things?? Anyways, on to our balloon painted caterpillar. Simply dab a small balloon into paint and place it onto your paper. While we waited for the caterpillar to dry we had fun watching some You Tube videos of caterpillar's transforming into butterflies. Then we came back to our caterpillars and added some finishing touches like eyes, nose, antennae, lets. I love that my children are very artistic! And this is why I enjoy creating things with my children. I also printed out these cute Very Hungry Caterpillar size sequencing pictures from 1+1+1=1. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Linking up to THESE Parties. Happy Crafting!!
Easter Crafts We've been busy with some fun Easter Crafts! Butterfly made an Easter lily, a baby chick, and a bunny candy holder! We put together our supplies for the Easter lily flower. I formed the white piece of paper into a cone and Butterfly taped it into place. We then cut out the petals. Butterfly took a yellow highlighter and coloured the inside of the lily yellow, and we took a yellow pipe cleaner and folded it in half, curled the ends and placed it in the middle of the lily. I fed the folded yellow pipe cleaner through the hole at the bottom of the cone and put the green pipe cleaner through the yellow one to add on the stem. After Butterfly cut out the leaves, she poked the leaves onto the stem. Then we curled the lily's petals by rolling them down on a pencil. Butterfly is really happy with her finished Easter lily, she loves flowers! Our next craft is a hatching baby chick! And taped them together on one side. We glued in fluffy yellow pom poms to make the chick. And we added some feathers.
Ocean Theme Ideas We created this fun mural the other day after reading the book "Hooray for Fish" by Lucy Cousins. Ok, actually we've read the book a billion times the last several weeks. Love this book! It's a story about going along with Little Fish on a mesmerizing underwater tour of friends spotty and stripy, happy and gripy, hairy and scary, even curly whirly and twisty twirly. We like to take a pause after reading each page and decide which fish was our favorite on the page. It is fun because the author made imaginary fish reminiscent of things like a butterfly, a leaf, a heart, a star, and a peacock (all pictured below). To make our mural we started by cutting a piece of poster board in half. I've had bubble wrap stored away for months now for this project. Then pressed it onto our paper and carefully lifted it off. After we done filling the entire paper, we had created our water background. Meet some of our fish: Little Fish (the main character) Fat fish Peacock Fish Mean Fish Fly fish 3 Fish Star Fish
Spring Kid's Craft Hello! Kristen here with a fun craft for kid's! These cute, crafty and earth friendly toilet paper roll butterflies are so colorful, and easy to make. You could make just one, or a big flock of them. First, you will need: Bobunny dot cardstock, a toilet paper roll, Bobunny double dot ribbon, googly eyes, a 1.5 inch flower punch and a 1/2 inch circle punch, and adhesives. To create the base of the butterfly, I cut a piece of cardstock into a 4.25 x 5.25 inch rectangle. Next, cut two 3 inch strips of ribbon. Now we can work on the wings. Trace the wing pattern onto cardstock, and cut out. To finish the butterfly, place adhesive along the middle of the wings, and adhere to the back of the finished tube. Hope you enjoy my fast and fun butterfly project! Bobunny supplies- Double Dot cardstock ( Clover, Brilliant Blue, Pink Punch, Buttercup, Orange Citrus, Wild Berry) , Double Dot ribbon ( Clover, Brilliant Blue, Orange Citrus), My Eye On U iCandy Jewels Kristen
Simple, Kid-Friendly Easter Cards | Daily Doses of Hope I love mail! Real paper mail! {if you’re read my blog long I’m sure you already figured that out!} I wanted to do an easy card that B could help me make. Supplies: • white card stock • yellow paint and tray • potato half • fork (optional) • foam brush (optional) • orange paper • scissors • goggly eyes • feathers (we cut our feathers in half because they looked huge whole!) Step One: Fold sheets of card stock in half. Step Two: Dip potato half in yellow paint and stamp card stock. We also used a foam brush here to fill in the spaces that were not stamped well. Step Three: Let dry until dry. Step Four: Using the black puffy paint, draw feet on each print. Step Five: Let the feet dry! Step Six: Cut out the beaks. Step Seven: Glue the eyes, beaks, and feathers onto the print. Step Eight: Sign the insides, insert a picture of your kids, or whatever you would like to do. Like this: Like Loading...
Namebows and an Easy Pattern Freebie This week is a short one, and next week we have spring break, so we aren't reading one of our Treasures stories. Instead, my students and I have been doing a lot of math, science, and social studies... plus having some fun as we decorate our room for April :)Today I planned to do something completely different, but when I realized I left my baseball buddy patterns at home, I had to think fast. I remembered seeing a super cute and easy activity while blog stalking: Namebow Rainbows from Reagan at Tunstall's Teaching Tidbits!I quickly made a cloud pattern and cut strips of colorful construction paper during snack time. As a class we brainstormed adjectives for each letter of the alphabet. I'd show you pics of our completed projects, but I don't want to put my littles' names out there and such. We also made these beyond-super-easy carrots to fill up some empty space {and time}: Click here to download the simple pattern from Google Docs for free. Pssst: Only 13 more followers until 1000!!!
