Palentologist: Dinosaur Excavation

Children of various ages and stages all love dinosaurs.

While some parents may look at this as “just playing”, however when children get involved in this hands on project based learning, there is a lot of learning taking place.

The early learning concepts we touched on:

• Science (learning about reptiles and dinosaurs)

• Sensory exploration (especially the senses of seeing and touching)

• Language and literacy (combining books, magazines etc.)

• Visual discrimination (looking at the fossils to determine which is which)

• Fine and gross motor skills (chiseling, hammering, holding paintbrushes to dust off the fossils)

It also helps build muscle strength, encourages and develops turn-taking ability and persistence

Fuel for Success

Our brain can’t function if it doesn’t have fuel. Children don’t have the same reserves that adults do.

Eating breakfast really does help kids learn. After fasting all night, a developing body – and brain – needs a fresh supply of nutrients.

Starting the day with a healthy breakfast will help children feel more resilient, better able to tackle their day, and prepare them to succeed in and out of the classroom.

Breakfast for the brain is the chance to fill our bodies with foods that give us a high-octane jump start, supplying energy, cognition and clarity to our brains for hours.

Eating breakfast affect learning and memory.  Cognitive function, memory, concentration and energy improve, making them more alert as a result of having breakfast.

The glucose found in most breakfasts is brain food. It's able to help get those neurons moving and allowing for quicker synapses so new information can be loaded, processed and stored.

So parents, fuel their brains for learning and success.

Self-feeding is a way of acknowledging that children can make their own choices.

Toddlers who are still spoon-fed don't learn to control the rate at which food goes into their mouth.

Self feeding is important for developing their fine motor skills. It helps develop their hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills.

Learning to pick food up with their hands, fingers and utensils, which actually requires quite complex movements and muscles need to develop over time.

Back-to-basics approach: Loose Parts

Loose parts play to children provides them with infinite opportunities to think and create.

Loose parts can be used in so many ways and the possibilities are as endless as a child’s imagination.

Loose parts encourage open-ended learning: Open ended materials, environments, and experiences encourage problem solving and are child centered.

Children involve themselves in concrete experiences using loose parts, which lead to explorations that occur naturally, as opposed to adult directed. 

Loose parts play develops skills across the whole curriculum.

It is child-led, and helps children strengthen their independence and sense of self.

It helps children observe, enquire, investigate, construct, deconstruct and engage with both others and the world around them.

• It develops imagination

• It connects children to reality and the real-world

• It creates language-rich play where vocabulary and conversation are at the forefront
• It fosters independence
• It supports creativity
• It develops gross and fine motor development
• It develops a feeling of achievement

Babies must crawl before they walk.

If your child skips crawling and went straight to walking, it does not mean your child is advance. In fact, it can mean your child’s brain has missed some vital developmental steps that will cause problems later. 

Crawling is considered the first form of independent movement.

Criss-cross crawling is vitally important to brain development. It helps support

[  ] cognitive function
[  ]  problem solving, and
[  ] ease of learning

It helps hip sockets form, serves as physiological stepping stone to walking. 

Crossing the midline of the body is key for developing:

[  ] vision
[  ] hearing

It helps with

[  ] learning, and integration of reflexes
[  ] Increases lower back strength in preparation for upright positioning.

It prepares

[  ] the ankles for the flexion used in walking.
[  ] Exercises spinal rotation.
[  ] Strengthens hand-eye coordination.

It provides exposure for the progression of their

[  ] gross motor skills from rolling, to crawling and walking
[  ] sets the foundation for fine motor skills
[  ] develops good core strength for speech.

It helps develop and enhance our

[  ] vestibular/balance system,
[  ] sensory system,
[  ] cognition,
[  ] problem solving skills, and coordination.

To help your baby succeed at crawling start with exposing them to tummy time while playing and awake at an early age. 

Remember to always place your baby on their back while sleeping.
