The Gruffalo (the most popular book by this author i guess) and One Ted Falls Out Of Bed(Its a rythemic counting book about a sleeping child's teddy bear who falls off the bed and cant climb back so he plays around with cars and balloons and all the other toys in the room but he misses his bed and soon the boy wakes up and pulls him back in bed)<br />
<br />
My daughter couldn't get enough of her Ted book. We had the book for 3 weeks and every single day we were reading TED. So i decided to do a lil reenactment of the story. I printed out some characters from the Internet, put out some of her cars and blocks and we spent a great time playing around with them.<br />

The other book was Gruffallo. I made some finger puppets using the character printouts and some matching game cards.<br />
<br />

My daughter didn't play much with the puppets but loved the matching game. It was her first time playing the game and she enjoyed it every bit.<br />

She cant recognize her colors yet..i am working on it. Whenever you ask her about a color she says its blue.I try not to compare her with other kids who all know the the colors of the rainbow:)<br />
Anyway..teaching about the color Green with a St Patrick's Day Sensory Bin.<br />
I started by showing her a green crayon and cucumber and asked her to help me find things around the house that match their color..she wasn't interested much. She just walked with me and watched while i gathered all the green stuff.<br />
We collected it all in a pan (i have to get a suitable plastic box for these activities..its on my list) and we were all set for the activity.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I used some green split lentils, green glass beads, plastic cookie cutters, green cup, spoons, soft pretend vegetables and a green painted bottle which was part of her birthday craft.<br />
<br />
She started by using a spoon to put lentils in the glass.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZHHVjTvS8leaHPoxqOjsmLyO0nvmQE2pVrMkH6uCU72nnroFHch5FWObxZtHa8Eidw-WKLnQZwj50WyeSJQWkbECaA8HZoBfRwOwG4Tf9ziMtac0yeG9LgbNy74jps08crGvbvSrev-BF/s1600/IMG_0494.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZHHVjTvS8leaHPoxqOjsmLyO0nvmQE2pVrMkH6uCU72nnroFHch5FWObxZtHa8Eidw-WKLnQZwj50WyeSJQWkbECaA8HZoBfRwOwG4Tf9ziMtac0yeG9LgbNy74jps08crGvbvSrev-BF/s320/IMG_0494.JPG" width="240" /></a></div>
<br />
Then she used the spoon to put lentils in the bottle.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
She then wanted to fill the glass by putting lentils in the bottle cap and then putting them in the glass.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
After this she wanted to explore with her hands and you can see that she removed everything from the pan one by one..the beads the alphabets. She just wanted to play with the lentils.<br />

We had a snow storm last week so we got involved in our favourite winter activity..making snowmen!<br />
My daughter said 'its too cold outside' but she still wanted to make a snowman so we got the snow inside and made little snowmen just like i saw them <a href="http://rainydaymum.co.uk/" target="_blank">here.</a><br />
I got some snow from outside in a baking pan,set it down on a kitchen towel on the floor and we were ready to make our snowmen.<br />

We later went outside to make a big snowman but my daughter preferred to stay inside and watch mama papa because she thought it was too cold outside. You can see her standing in our patio door in the pic below.<br />

Now my DD hasn't read 'Ten Apples up on Top' yet(we are still on the nose and foot book) but i thought a simple activity with apples would be fun.<br />
So we first used apples as our blocks and tried making a tower which was really hard.<br />

We didn't do any special activities for valentines day which was all my fault(had planned a lot of activities but didn't get around doing any of those) which was bad..so i thought i should not leave the love theme all together and gave this little activity to my DD who loves stickers like any other toddler. So i gave her a piece of paper with hearts drawn all over it, gave her some heart shaped stickers and told her to put stickers and cover the hearts on paper.<br />

A small but fun activity..something that can keep your toddler busy when you just need those 5 minutes to finish something you started...:)<br />

Last weekend we decided to try it out with our daughter.<br />
It was a nice bright space with loads of things to do. There was a kitchen play space and a market place with shopping carts and groceries. Usually my DD always wants to spend a lot of time in these places but that day was different..she just wasn't interested in it. She ran across to play on the <em>Rubber band Wall..</em>something she hadn't seen before:)<br />

Couldn't get pictures for the other stuff:(<br />
Anyways, the next room had some live creatures for the kids to see like a turtle, a snake and they also had a new addition..a cute white bunny named Thumper but he was kept separately.<br />

Outside the room there was a<em> Magnet Go Round</em> with different activities on each side. Kids could exercise their sequencing skills or complete a giant puzzle or build their own invention on the magnetic wall and see if they can get balls to roll all the way through. This thing was a bit advanced for my DD but she loved sticking the magnetic pieces on the wall:)<br />

Use it for some game time with your toddler:)<br />
I got inspired for this particular activity from <a href="http://rainydaymum.co.uk/" target="_blank">Rainydaymum</a> but then changed it a little bit.<br />
I used a cake baking pan and filled it up with snow from outside, added a few beads that i had from some project i did earlier and gave my DD a spoon and a cup and she was all set to play<em> Find the Beads Game.</em><br />
<em></em><br />
She first explored all the things..played with the cold snow for a while using her fingers and a spoon. then she played with the beads a little.<br />

Your certainly have to be creative to keep their attention.I knew i would be needing some of those activities during the huge storm so i went online and found some very interesting ones on Pinterest(i love this thing).<br />
The one i tried here with my DD kept her busy for almost 2 hours!! I couldn't have asked for anything more:)<br />
<br />
If your kid loves paint or just loves to get messy..this is what you should do on a long winter day:)<br />

I gave her some washable paint in 2 throwaway bowls, a little paint brush and our very special paint shirt that has her hand prints on it..she loves the shirt. Whenever i ask her if she wants to paint..she will say YES and will run to fetch her paint shirt:)<br />
Anyway..after tiles and bathtub..she wanted to color her nesting cups.<br />

How do they do it?</em> kind of guy.. if you know what i mean. Always tries to know how it was built or why or by whom..tries to know the science or sense behind every little thing. So this year to make his day a little special..we went to the New England Air Museum in Windsor Locks,CT(Boys ..BIG or small..they all love airplanes!!)<br />
<br />
The moment we entered both DH and DD were equally excited when they saw the roof covered with all sorts of hanging planes and gliders..It was a good start. You pay the fee you get a little aeroplane stamp on your hand which made my DD so happy..she kept checking it to make sure that it doesn't smudge:)<br />

We were now ready to go inside the hanger..it was cold in there but it didn't matter to my DH because he was busy now..busy reading all the history about the vintage planes..engines..flights..sitting in the cockpits..trying to fly a plane in the flight simulator and much more.<br />

There was a little kids area too where she could sit in these small gliders but papa had to push her around because her legs were too small to reach the paddle. There was even a little coloring station for the kids with cute printables and a basket full of colored pencils.It didn't hold her attention much because there were planes everywhere and there was so much place to run around!<br />

There was a little gift shop also called Wings and Things but it got closed before we could check it out. It didn't matter because the birthday boy isn't into gift shops anyway but it was a great outing..Big boys or small..they will all enjoy airplanes any day!!<br />
