Happy FUNctional Learning Friday! ๐
This is where we showcase a fun yet functional activity that will engage your child and help them learn.
Today, weโre looking at a pom pom tube wall thatโs perfect for kids who like to play with their hands. ๐๐ป
This activity is not only easy to set up with materials you already have lying around but will keep your kids engaged all afternoon โ a win, win!
What youโll needโฆ
๐ Tape
๐ Toilet Paper Rolls
๐ Pom Poms
๐ Collection Bin
First, begin by taping the toilet paper rolls into different funnels on the wall with a collection bin below. Grab your pom poms and start playing โ itโs that simple!
Although you can approach this activity in a number of ways, we recommend creating colour-coded tube routes with corresponding pom poms to help your child learn about colours while developing their fine motor skills.
Try this activity next time your children are looking for something to do, and let us know what they think!
And be sure to follow for more fun yet functional learning activities! ๐ค

Itโs time for anotherโฆ ! ๐
Check out these three educational accounts and why we love them!

is the official Newfoundland and Labrador tourism account. What makes this account so great is that they not only showcase all of the amazing sites but thereโs a surprising amount of educational content! For example, one of their posts explores the different types of icebergs (who knew there were multiple kinds??) โ๏ธ
canada is an account that documents and provides information about all of the different types of birds that are native/can be found in Canada. We highly recommend this account for our animal-loving students! ๐๏ธ

โTeaching should not be a profession โ it must be a passion. Only then can education move from imposition of facts to exploration of truth.โ โ Sadhguru ๐
At Knowledge Bump, we believe education is about so much more than just memorizing facts and information. ๐ค
Instead, we know itโs about cultivating your childโs curiosity, intriguing their senses, and nurturing their mind. ๐ณ
And this starts with instruction โ both inside and outside the classroom.
Thatโs why every tutor on our team at Knowledge Bump is not only passionate about what they do but are willing to go the extra mile to ensure that your childโs education is not an imposition of facts but rather a foundation for the rest of their life.

Some of the benefits of note-taking includeโฆ
โ๏ธ Keeps you alert and accountable
โ๏ธ Engages your mind
โ๏ธ Emphasizes and organizes information
โ๏ธ Boosts comprehension
โ๏ธ Creates a condensed record for study
But what about for those who learn best visually?
If youโre more of a visual learner, you might consider adding drawings or sketches to your notes that represent relevant concepts or terms to help you remember them.

โEducation is not the answer to the question. Education is the means to the answer to all questions.โ โ William Allin ๐
At Knowledge Bump, we truly believe that when you plant the seeds of knowledge, trees of wisdom will grow. ๐ณ
To us, this means not just administering lessons to children but finding innovative ways to engage, entertain, and, ultimately, educate them.
This is one reason why we like to utilize game-based learning within our tutoring lessons so that thereโs a higher chance of not only knowledge retention but enjoyment from the student.
๐ก Because ultimately, the goal is to set them up for a brighter future where theyโre confident enough to find the solutions to questions for themselves!
