This was a simple and easy to setup activity for Vito. Looks simple but he loves doing this over and over again!

Indoor and Outdoor Light Activities for Kids

Exploring Colors with DIY Light Table and Stencils
Thursday, June 16, 2016
We’re having simple activities for our Light and Shadow Unit. Since it’s been raining most of the time, we’re doing much of the activities indoors (much to my dismay). So probably, creating shadows under the sun has to wait, and shadows using torch will also have to wait since our sunset here is 10PM. We might redo this activity in September or October, when night time comes early so we can play with our torch and make shadows.

It was so warm last Tuesday that I asked the boys to play outside and then wash their dinosaur toys. Oh boy, they were so happy to do so!

Creativity with Shape Mags (Stick N Stack)
Friday, June 3, 2016
Vito is 30 months old.
I bought this amazing product when we went to the US last month. We have Magnatiles and we love it, but the problem is we can’t really make something more out of those squares and triangles. When I came across Stick N Stack in Amazon and read good reviews, I just needed to buy those beautiful window tiles and carts! And if you ask me, yes they work really well with Magnatiles!
And since we’re having Transportation Unit, I made Vito create his own cart. Oh boy, he played with it for hours!! I asked Mavi to assist his little brother for awhile but later on left when he realized that Vito doesn’t want him for a playmate.

Transportation Unit: Water Vehicles
Friday, May 27, 2016
Vito is 30 months old.
Both of my boys were looking forward to this Transportation Unit as they love cars, trains and airplanes. We started off by introducing Vito the water vehicles using Safari Toob In the Water figures, a little water sensory tub and matching activity.

Milking a Cow for Toddlers
Tuesday, May 17, 2016
I never knew that this could be fun! My Vito enjoyed this activity so much that we did this a couple of times during the day. Even big brother Mavi joined in the fun as well, trying to outshine each other on whoever gets to finish milking first.
Farm Animals Sort & Play
Monday, May 16, 2016
When I was planning for a Farm Unit, I wanted it to be simple because it’ll be the week of our arrival from our trip. This means, we are all tired (especially me!), and I need time to do all the unpacking. So my aim is still to provide activities to Vito with less preparation.
Now, I made these playdough last month and yes, they’re still good! The main objective of this play is to sort out the animal figures from Safari Toob and Shleich according to their “habitat”.

Homemade Face Puzzle for Toddlers
Wednesday, May 4, 2016
Vito is 29 months old.
So I was brainstorming the other way of what else could we do for our Body Unit and Mavi suggested that I should give Vito do a puzzle work. But he worked with our favourite body puzzle already and Mavi said, what about creating Vito’s face? And it hit me! Why not print a picture of Vito and turn it into a puzzle! This way he’ll be familiar of the order of his face from top to bottom, right?

Our Homemade Shapes Materials
Thursday, April 28, 2016
Sometimes, the tools that Im looking for are not available on line or in stores so I made them myself. I used to have a lot of time for making our own materials but with Vito and the increase of responsibilities at home, I can barely print my activities. So my aim these days is to make materials that are simple and easy to assemble. Here are the materials that are easy to make even without the use of a printer!
