We’ve done this before (in 2013) and we made another one again! Creating our planets for our solar system using aluminium foil. Have done this before? I mentioned the source of this activity in my previous post, read it here.
The Elements of Art: Learning about Lines
Tuesday, July 11, 2017
It is timely that I get to share how we nurture the artistic side of the kids using Montessori principles. In this month’s 12 Months More of Montessori Learning, I’m sharing Vito’s current obsession: drawing! If you’ve been following me on Instagram, I shared how Vito enjoys making faces of us (Dad, Mom and Mavi). He just uses lines and dots, a little bit of shading to convey the emotions and faces of his family. So Mavi suggested if we could teach him how to make different kinds of lines, just like we did before.

Top 30 Learning Activities for 3 to 3.5 Years Old
Friday, July 7, 2017
I created a list of Vito’s favourite activities starting from 36 months to 3.5 years of age. I know we’ve had a lot more than 30 but these are his favourite and my top picks as well. I chose these activities over the rest because he mostly asked for these activities to work on more frequently than others. He’s more engaged, he learned a lot of vocabulary words and these were the activities where he spent a lot of his time exploring. So I hope this list will inspire you and give you ideas for things to do with your child around this age.
** Note: Always supervise your child, especially if he/she is handling sharp tools and small objects.
