Big Cats

Last 2 weeks, we were working on the theme - Big Cats. 

This sensory tub for this theme was made for them. There was a paper tree done by Y. The big cats are from safari toob. Trees are from some other toy sets. Craft sticks are used as grassland and river (blue).

This small booklet about big cats facts was made for this theme.

These are some of the Youtube that kids had watch to learn more about big cats.

Fine and gross motor skills

These are some recent activities done with kids, some are Montessori activities. 

Kids are using tong to transfer marbles and arrange on the mat. It is a great activity for fine motor skill. 

I put a tub at a certain distance from play yard, and kids try to throw colorful balls into the tub. 

Lastly, I bought the clips from Daiso, they got heart, star and rectangle. Initially kids use them for color shape sorting. After that, they connect them together become necklaces, and also arrange them in different shapes as shown in the photos. 

Homeschool Theme - Sharks

Sharks are Y's favourite. Thus, I decided to do the theme - SHARK for the past two weeks. These are some of the activities that we had done in this theme.

Two small booklets made for this theme, first is type of sharks (first row) and second booklet is facts of sharks (2nd row). 

They also read about sharks from 'Life in the Water' from Educational Technologies. 

This is the sensory tub for this theme, the sharks are from Safari toob. Pom pom, marble and ribbons in blue acts like Oceans. 

Here are some great videos about sharks from DiscoveryTV on YouTube:
