Circle ⭕️ time is so much fun. Today the toddlers had a great 👍🏻 time doing different activities in circle. ⭕️ They did a fun activity using scarves 🧣 dancing 💃 to slow and fast 💨 music. 🎶 Watching the children 🧒🏻 try to move the scarves 🧣 to slow music 🎼 was something to watch. They looked like robots 🤖 whose battery was dying. The fast music 🎵 was just as funny. The children tried to get their bodies to move as fast as they could. Some of the scarves 🧣 even ended up on the floor. It was a fun experience that every child on the group enjoyed.

Brush, brush, 🪥brush your teeth. 🦷 Even if they are made from paper. The toddlers 👶🏼 from our Kanata location did some toothbrush 🪥 painting 🖼️ earlier this week. Trying to teach the children the importance of keeping their teeth 🦷 clean and how important it is. It’s never too early to start teaching them about dental hygiene.

Animal 🦒 rescuers is what our toddler 👶🏼 group became recently. Here is a fun fine motor 🖐🏼 activity that you could do at home with your children. 👧🏽 🧒🏻Take a tray and some small plastic animals 🦊🐱 and using masking tape, tape them down to the tray. Now let your child 👶🏼 try and pick the tape off the animal 🦓 to release/rescue the animals. The toddlers really enjoyed this activity. It kept them engaged for quite some time.

Our little artists 🧑🏽‍🎨 in the toddler 👶🏼program from our Kanata location really enjoyed exploring colours 🔵🔴🟣 and textures. They got very creative using q-tips and paint 🎨 on a tree. 🌳 This activity supports fine motor development, self expression, creativity and colour recognition, hand 🖐🏼 eye 👁️ coordination, and a sense of accomplishment. Art 🖼️ is an activity that almost all of our children enjoy.

The preschool children at Carling enjoy participating in colour 🎨 and shape matching activities.
The educator laminated an assortment of shapes with coloured 🎨 dots and encouraged the children to match coloured pom-poms to the coloured dots.
This activity promotes colour and shape recognition, and hand 🖐️ eye 👁️ coordination.
