The Creative Campus The Place For Learning Activities for all ages!

Hi everyone!  I wanted to write you a post and let you know about something I have been inspired to do ( thanks to all the reading I have been doing). I want to start writing blog posts on different topics and give ideas on effective ways to engage in the topic with young children. Sometimes these things will be about children who are Developmentally Delayed ( something I have studied for years) and sometimes it will be about topics that relate to children of all abilities. This time I would like to write about Language Development. I recently read some interesting books and articles on this topic, and learned a lot of interesting things.

Today we made play dough gardens. we rolled out green play dough, and planted different foods, and play flowers in our gardens. This was a really fun way to bring spring alive. Then we made dot flowers which came out really cool. we used shape sponges and paint over different colors to make a flower adding a stem and leafs. I cant wait to meet with my friends again to learn about some new spring themed things. ( I'm working on something really cool). Talk to you soon! Ms. Theresa

Hello Everyone! I had a wonderful morning learning and playing with my friends today! I had the chance to have a wonderful conversation with some of their moms as well. I love getting to know such wonderful people. It's one of the best parts of being a teacher. Today in class, we talked about Rainbows. We made rainbows in play dough. In art we used textures and paint to make rainbows as well.  These are some fun activities you can re create at home with your little ones. You can even make jell -o and add spring themed items for your children to play with. If you have any fun activities that you have used at home, Please feel free to post them here! I would love to hear some of the fun things you're doing. We Will Talk Again Soon, Your Creativity Producer and Professional Mess Maker, Theresa @ The Creative Campus
