Pot of gold and rainbow, art activity for toddlers

POT OF GOLD AND RAINBOW

art activity for toddlers

It was a two days project for us. The first day we glued the coins. I let the children using a glue stick by themself then I demonstrated picking up glitter from my left palm with my fingers and sprinkling it on glue drops that I previously applied on each coin. Some followed my directions and some just dumped the whole handful in one spot 😀. Then I shook the free ones and gathered them in my palm again and sprinkled again. It was a good fine motor activity

The following day we pasted the 7 colors on the rainbow strip in the back of the pot of gold.

May the luck of the Irish be with you today! 😀 ☘️

The principles that guide me to manage a group of toddlers

THE PRINCIPLES THAT GUIDE ME TO MANAGE A GROUP OF TODDLERS 1. The group as a whole is the priority at all times. That means I try not to focus too hard or too long on anything else. When I clean or put the shoes on one child for example, I keep an eye on the group. I position myself in a way that I see everyone. And if one child gets bored or disruptive, I drop whatever i'm doing and discreetly direct him/her to a safe and acceptable activity. If I cannot drop what I'm doing, for example if I'm changing a diaper, I sing an action song or direct verbally. The tone and the words have to be positive and enthusiastic as opposed to negative. I try to not turn my back on the children. If I ever do, for example to open the shed in the playground, I count them first and acknowledge that they are safe and behaved, if not I take care of that first.

Ice fishing, activity for toddlers

ICE FISHING Cognitive Activity for toddlers I wrapped a box with white paper, then cut out a hole on one side. I put magnet fishes in it and gave my "kids" the magnet fishing poles that goes with them. If you don't have that you can make your own poles with paper towel tubes with a string and a letter magnet and paper fishes with a paper clip. This activity is good for initiative, engagement in learning and cognitive flexibility.
