STAMPING WITH TOILET PAPER ROLLS

Once a week, generally on Mondays, I try to set out an invitation to paint and such provocations very seldom remain untouched around here. This way, we have explored for example shaving cream painting, watercolor making, finger paint, glue and glitter, stamping with different objects such as old shoes soles, bubble wrap paper, toilet paper rolls, acorns, leaves... things that cost really nothing or very little and provide a wonderful experience and a while of focused work.

CHRISTMAS DECORATION

No, I am not completely nuts. I know Christmas is over but I had lots of activities planned for last month and I could not share any due to a problem with my other blog http://labambinafelice.blogspot.com.es/ and more remarkably due to A's birth at the beginning of December. This here is what we made as Christmas gifts for relatives and friends. Three sessions of work for M: making salt dough and cutting the shapes with Xmas cookie cutters, painting and gluing glitter, and lacing.
I try to prepare environments in an appealing way so M can get engaged with them. This sometimes doesn't work but play dough or salt dough activities are almost always a hit.
