Hi 👋
I’m Jillayna from 🙃 •I’m a litttttle weird but I hold a whole lotta love and passion for Little’s and seeing them THRIVE. •I’m a mom of two and a wife to one. 🤭

I LOVE to cook and find it so relaxing ( under the right circumstances 🥴) • I’m a horrible Baker but somehow I’m still extremely relentless in my baking pursuits. ( I fail prob 95% of the time but I keep trying and give my husband much entertainment along the way 🤓) I’m a registered Early Childhood Educator, I’ve worked in childcare centres in many age groups, led a children’s music and movement class, worked in before-and-after care programs for school-aged children, worked for the York Region District School Board in kindergarten classes, had a couple babies along the way 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 and have been offering childcare at my home for about 1.5 years and am very thankful for the opportunity to be apart of a child’s development on a daily basis.
What do we have in common? 🥘 🍰 🎵 👩‍🏫 🏫 👶 🏠

•Colour/Letter Match Activity•

We busted out the dot stickers this morning. I love how versatile those colourful little stickers are, endless activity potential for Little ones. has a ‘highlight’ bubble dedicated to dot sticker activities and I’ve found it very helpful!

Today I set up this activity to accommodate a preschool-aged child and two toddlers. I suggested the preschooler match the letters and the toddlers choose a colour and match them with the corresponding coloured circle 🟠 and/or just practice using their fine motor skills to peel the stickers off themselves( a skill in itself that takes time to learn and grow patience and confidence in*). As always there’s a bit of chaos, multiple opportunities for turn-taking, social and spacial awarenessss, keeping hands to ourselvesss...jealously over colours 🟣 🟠 🔵 you know how it goes with anything with any human being aged 1-99.🙃 Always such a joy to see how confident each child can feel after seeing all of their hard work through simple play 💛

Potential skills enhanced:
Turn-taking skills, fine and gross motor skills, confidence and self-regulation, colour recognition and letter recognition.

•DIY SHAPE SORTING PUZZLE ACTIVITY•

This activity was put together a couple weeks ago and it was such a fun, super easy way to use things we already had on hand to create something NEW to be explored and also enhance those cognitive thinking skills 🧠.

We used different shaped blocks for this particular DIY SHAPE SORTING PUZZLE ACTIVITY. Next time, I plan on extending this activity by letting the children the choose items for their individualized puzzles. The possibilities really are endless- some examples: Tupperware lids, mason jar lids, toys, rocks, leaves, sticks, toys, a spoon 🥄, popsicle sticks, a small book etc).

What we used:
Thrifted Wooden blocks
Dry Erase Pockets
Recycled paper 📝
Marker

Potential Skills Enhanced:
Cognitive thinking/ Problem Solving, Hand-Eye Coordination, Language and Speech Skills, Shape Recognition/ Identification
