More songs and a story

Welcome back my Friends!

So hard to believe it is the first week of June.

I hope everyone is doing well. Be kind to yourself

as we navigate this (new normal) way of life.

As the schools have opened this week Strongstarts

will stay closed until Sept. Parents are not allowed in

the schools at this time (Ministry directed)

and we know without you there

would be no program.

I would really like to Thank all those we have reached out to me

through comments and e-mails, as they brightened my Days.

I too miss Strongstart  but,  All of you the most!

Take Great Care,

Truly Ms. Trish

Let’s move!

Hi everyone, glad to see you back again!

Today I have some stories about movement.

We all know how much better we feel emotionally

and physically when we are active. Building our muscles

helps us with coordination and stamina so we can participate

in sports, music , dancing, bike riding, hiking and play grounds

safely and confidently. I hope you enjoy the stories, dance and

activities I have for you today.

Balloon play:

Playing with your child, developing movement skills,(eye hand coordination).

Social skills, (taking turns). Language /Literacy links,( counting, rhythm, rhyme).

If you put a nylon knee high over the balloon it will be less likely to pop!

It  could scare the Fun out of Play if it pops!

Count how many times you can hit it up in the air without it touching the ground.

Volley the balloon back and forth between you and your child singing a song or rhyme.

Make a racket to hit the balloon back and forth from a paper plate, tape and wooden spoon.

Enjoy, Ms Trish

 

Chalk

Chalk is very inexpensive and a fun activity.

Many ways to explore it’s abilities, try wetting it.

It will look brighter and more like paint.

In a tray of salt it is fun to use Chalk to practice letters,

numbers and draw pictures.

Here are some pictures of our explorations with calk.

Every Child is unique

We are all unique in our own ways.

Some of us thrive when keeping busy, always

moving and  trying new things. While others are

are content  and fulfilled to revisit what they know

and enjoy doing. Helping your Child to acknowledge who

they are and that they are special helps them to develop

a strong sense of self and build  confidence that they will

build on their whole lifetime!

Try practicing with your Child this little exercise to celebrate who

they are and that they are honored for their unique traits.

Hold a hand mirror and look into it and you say first,

(to model how). I am special because I have beautiful eyes, (for example).

Give the mirror to your Child and have them look at themselves and say

to themselves while looking into the mirror, why they are special

and important. Here are some examples to get the routine going.

Keep taking turns with the mirror.

I am special because, I can dress myself!

I am special because I help my Baby when she needs help!

I am special because I know how to sing and dance!

I am special because I have curly hair!

I am special because I love to paint beautiful pictures!

              The possibilities are endless, as they learn a new abilities!

Keep practicing this everyday, or maybe at nighttime laying together in bed.

 Important to have them looking at themselves in a mirror and saying to themselves.

why they are special and important!

Watch them Bloom and grow into the unique person they are!

Childhood is very short but SO important for building foundations

for a life of self love and self awareness.

Hugs and love sprinkles, Ms. Trish

Have Fun always!
