Baby It’s Cold Outside

>

It is so cold outside. The cold wouldnt be so bad if the wind wasn’t blowing. Layers work best in this kind of weather. Remember our quality standards state that we go outside unless there is an advisory or falling precipitation. We don’t stay out for the long periods like for warmer weather , we break our hour into smaller segments and indoor gross motor play.
Sensory boxes – why do we use them ?

Tactile perception refers to the interpretation of informatio sent to the brain from the fingertips.

Improving a child’s tactile perception will enhance her self-confidence when she performs tasks using her hands and fingers.

Stereognosis refers to the ability to recognise unseen objects using the sense of touch.

Activities to stimulate this will enable a child to experience her surroundings through her body and become familiar with them in more than one way.

I try to put one of these out for each unit. Last night I made a Christmas box. It has scented pinecones ( Glittered too !) , small ornaments, cut garland, squeeze balls, gems and all kinds of goodies in there for the children to find.

The kids are loving these magnetic builders I bought.
Some days, you just have to be a princess.

One of the boys was having a hard time not gripping his pencil today so I showed him how to put the marker cap in his palm to keep his grip the right way. He considered it a trick so he enjoyed it !
The manger scene was a big hit today!
Some of us played old maid today. As I explained the game I realized something that it took me 44 years to get. The idea is to get matches. There is only one old maid card, she has no match… get it ? Why did I never figure that our before….?
