Clothes pins and clips make for a great way to exercise little hands and fingers. Collect your clips and clothespins and simply find places to clip them in your home!

📚Children's books, often incorporate math and science concepts. The Enormous Potato ties in measurement through introducing the characters in order of size (biggest to smallest). Children also experience the life cycle of plants by seeing how the potato is planted, grown, picked, cooked and eaten!
.
Add simple props to your child's favourite stories to further engage them in their learning and build onto their interests. Here we added potatoes and measuring tapes to the story!

This sensory activity is not only great for babies

This sensory activity is not only great for babies (as pictured above) but for toddlers and preschoolers too! Change this activity up by setting up on a table and practice fine motor skills by moving and manipulating the paint with fingers and hands instead of feet. 🎨 Set up and materials ⬇️ Materials:
• Paint
• A clear plastic bag
• Paper
• Tape Method:
1. Start by setting up the paper on a table or the floor.
2. Then put paint onto the paper in big globs (that way it can be moved around under the plastic bag).
3. Next, take your plastic bag and place it on top of the papers, and tape the edges so the bag remains in it's spot.
Now you're ready to paint!
