100 Languages of Children: Checklist of Unexpected Ideas for your Play Zones.

Such a fun adaptation! This is great for your kinaesthetic learners! {your movers + shakers}

Have you and your kids ever worked with CLAY? Clay is a medium like no other. Kids love to be the "boss" of their medium, and clay responds beautifully to a child's touch. Whether they are pinching, rolling, pounding, smearing... there are so many opportunities for rich language development and creative expression.... Clay has a language all its own. Giving children the opportunity to play, experiment with, and muck about with clay is truly important work. Swipe for a few examples for vocabulary, prompts to use, and ideas for projects with young ones! If you like the ideas in my feed, and are looking for a casual-virtual-teacher to lead your child in some ARTFUL, gentle math and literacy learning, hop on over to our FREE OPEN HOUSE next week, for Inspir{Ed} at Home: LIVE Play-Based enrichment for Kids, February 25, 10:30 - 11:30 AM CST. The sign-up is in my profile @artfulteaching.joyfullearning p.s. The Dollar Store now carries packages of air-dry clay (very much like the real thing). #reggioinspired #reggioathome #reggioemilia #invitationtocreate #learnthroughplay #playbasedlearning #learningthroughplay #homeschool #homeschoollife #365homeschool #homeschoolcollective #homeschoolfun #homeschoolersofinstagram #homeeducator #unschool #unschooling #unschoolinglife #waldorfhomeschool #wildandfreemama #wildandfreechildren #homeschoolmom #homeschoolmomlife #homeschoolfamily #kindredhomeschool #homeschoolcommunity #homeschoolpreschool #preschoolathome #totschool #montessoriathome See more
