Some fun today!
I'm all about Easy to do activities that keep them busy for 45+mins! 😊
Why you should this
Easy Activity
Water Pouring Station
1. Easy to set up, outside 😉
2. Gives you 30-60 min break 🌈
3. They are learning, Really!!!! 💡
Look at this kiddos!
They Are So Into It!!!
They are learning, with natural rienenforcement, that they need to be careful when opening or pouring.
Do I mind them getting wet outside, no, not right now! 😊
So, each time they spill they feel it and I see them trying hard to get it in the jars, cups, etc...
WHAT IS IT TEACHING?
It is teaching fine Motor skills 🤏
It is teaching restraint 🙆
It is teaching how to be content 🧘♀️
It is teaching sharing with the 2 different stations 🤝
🌈 HOW TO EXTEND THE ACTIVITY 🌈
This is your secret!
Keep the colored tablets until they start getting restless!!!
Once you see them getting ready to move on, place a bath color tab into 3 different bins.. ask them to not mix INSIDE of the bins but theu can mix in any of their jars or bowls..
This extended the Activity another 30 mins!!!!!!
NOW WERE TEACHING... 🌈 🎨
It is color theory
And.... it give me an extra 30 mins with my coffee!!!! 😊😉
HOW TO SET UP
1. 2 children? Try 2 stations
2. Each child 3-5 plastic jars, pitchers, or cups
3. A bin or a bathtub, just Something to contain the water. We're in a drought! Let's be as green as possible.
4. Some water.
5. Your coffee and your phone to take some photos! Share your mom wins with us.
