Which has me think of another activity and that was art with uncooked noodles: bow-ties, wagon wheels, macaroni...<BR/><BR/>Yes, construction, they love construction. I've got two boxes of stuff reserved just for construction. They haven't been pulled out in a while.<BR/><BR/>While we've got playdough (which, frustratingly, ds mixed his colours completely together the day we bought some), actually MAKING playdough would be another good activity, too.<BR/><BR/>Thanks, Lisia!One Alberta Voicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16406240007172639671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13680527.post-60453807636151141452007-08-10T23:15:00.000-06:002007-08-10T23:15:00.000-06:00During holidays at home when my kids were your nep...During holidays at home when my kids were your nephew's age, art was popular. Playdough for example. Construction: I would collect every kind of packaging I could find, from cereal cartons to ribbons to disposable cups when we had smoothies at the mall. The kids used tape and staples to make their own designs from it all. <BR/><BR/>For something out of the ordinary, we once tried construction using toothpicks and grapes. Another time I cooked spaghetti and the kids made pictures with it.Montessorihomeschoolinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12182243182420185647noreply@blogger.com
