Something to live by

When children-not teaching children- is the focus, meaningful learning takes place.

Remember that we are not teaching a whole group of children we are teaching individual children in a group. 

Busy Bag

So remember HERE when I told you I was making my nephews Christmas presents?  Well for my other nephew I am trying a sort of busy bag for him to play with.  I saw this cute idea and just tweaked it a little.  I went to walmart and got color splotches (2 of each, one for the matching and one to cut up).  I already had clothes pins and hot glue so I went to work.  I just cut out squares and glued them to the back of the pin- easy as that!  Now some of these colors might be hard for little ones to tell the difference between so I made some that match letter, numbers, and shapes, and of course the colors already.  Now how educational is that!? Learning numbers, letter,shapes, and colors while also working on their fine motor skills-all for FREE! You can't top that!  

Next I found this cute printable for a Mr. Potato head (HERE) I printed, laminated, and stuck some velcro on it, also SO easy!  You don't even have to put velcro on it and you could do this for free (if you don't already have some!) What kid doesn't love a Mr. Potato head?  Stay tuned for more ideas...And feel free to leave me any of your own!
