I've been trying to bring back the preschool activities into Max's life since Eli gets a whole bunch of structured activities every day. We have been doing a lot of them with friends which is even better. Here are some ideas if you have preschoolers.
1. Cereal necklaces. Thread with yarn covered at the end with tape. Then they can eat them when they are finished.
2. My boys favorite way to paint is Smash Paintings. Fold a paper in half and paint on one side. Smash really hard and open for a surprise. I love these dot pens but any paint works.
3. Games!! I love games so we have been playing them a lot lately since the boys are old enough now, and they are great learning tools. Some great ones we have played this week are: Uno, Go Fish, Old Maid, War, The Ladybug Game, and Giant Puzzles.
4. Tennis ball smash paintings. We did this the day it rained. We put tennis balls in rain water buckets and smashed them and rolled them and splattered them on the sidewalk. ;-)
5. Treasure Hunt at the park. I brought alphabet magnets, crayons, and a few pieces of candy to keep the kids looking and hid a ton all over the park. The kids looked for everything for a long time. Then you can have them use the magnets for projects later, they also stuck to the metal benches!! I brought paper to draw with the crayons as well. Max loves this activity and will even hide things for himself to find now. ;-)
