Fun Crafts

Fine motor skills and the capability of appreciating Arts started to develop in early childhood, which can make big difference in children's lives. We do our best to incorporate creative arts and crafts lessons each week. Sometimes we give specific projects that children need to follow steps to complete, and sometimes, we allow open ended activities that children just enjoy the process and the results can be very surprising.

Resist Paint on Canvas

This was an open ended painting project. Children just use their fingers to spread the colors on the canvas and made any patterns they liked. After they were done they peeled the contact paper on the canvas and they saw their own names!

The Theme of Water

We are having a transitional period as we expanded into a large family child care recently with the newly issued license. I was very busy with redesigning the program and helping the new children to get used to the environment. So I did not get a chance to put new posts on this blog. What I am going to post now is a theme we did in August, not recently.

Children all love water. It is fun and there are thousand of ways to play with water. We tried to incorporate water into our activities, but this Summer seemed never get hot enough for children to wear their swimming suits and play outdoors. We finally had a week in August that weather were all above 90, so we put out all our fun water equipments in our backyard during that week.  It turned out to be a lot of fun for our children.
