Letter B (Lesson 6)

For our lesson today, we did 2 crafts which is a boat and a bug craft. We started with the bug craft using plaster.
I assisted him to paste the plaster on the paper as he still cannot handle the plaster very well. once he wanted to paste on the paper, the plaster will become crumpled.

Next, we add in the goggly eyes for the bug.
Our 3 cute little bugs. I drew some stars and moon for the bug, Javier also want to add in some cloud on it.

Next, we did a boat craft, I cut the shape the day before to save time

Javier applying glue on the cut out shape to paste on a construction paper

When I was not looking, he uses the crayon to draw on top of the glue :(

We also did some button stamping on the Letter B.

And paint stamping would lead to Javier messing with the paint. He told me he want to do a hand stamping also, which I gladly help him.

He saw me using the paint brush to apply the paint on his hand. As so call 'monkey see, monkey do', the little monkey also help himself with the brush and apply the paint on his own hand and stamp it on the paper.

We did a fun activity of blowing the cotton wool

Our last activity for this lesson is sorting m&m, and definetly Javier favourite activity for today.
I put 5 colour bowl from ikea and tell Javier to sort the m&m according to the bowl colour.

He was not really concentrating in sorting the colour, he is more interested in eating. So i took the m&m and ask him which bowl should he put. You know what he told me???? He say put into his mouth!!!!!! Oh dear, my little greedy boy... But he still managed to sort all the m&m with some help from mummy.

After sorting, I let him have some of the m&m which he quickly stuff it himself in mouth. :)

Mini Choco Sponge Cake

Just feel like doing some baking, So I decided to do some mini chocolate sponge cake, as it is the fastest and easiest cake to do.

Greenwood Sanctuary @ Admiralty

Finally after the long long wait.. the park opposite our place is finally open. After the kids dinner, I brought them to the park for some exploring.
We are at the entrance of the park. The boys were out of control when we reached the park. Javier refuse to hold my hand and dash to the park himself.
They are really curious about this park, as this is the the 2nd time they really came here. The 1st time they came here was for the tree planting ceremony, but during that time the park wasn't fully complete yet.

Javier running after his gorgor.

The 2 boys stopping at this mini bridge for quite long to pick up small pebbles to play.

If I din not ask them to go, I think they can stay here to pick pebbbles for 1 hour.
We are the sandy playground. I told the boys to take off their shoe before they go into the sand.

The sand is really fine, just perfect to play with. Just a pity, I forgot to bring the beach tools for them to play here.

They were more interested in the sand than the playground.

Jayden playing with the standing version see-saw

High '10' from Javier

A nice shot of Jayden on the hippo

For these 2 hippo, when 1 person talk into the mouth, and the 2 person can hear it through the ear of another hippo.
This part of the playground is up a mini-hill. But it is more suitable for young kids and the playground is really small here. That's why there is not many kids playing here.

I bought the kids back for shower at around 7plus.

Letter B (Lesson 5)

Today we continued with our Lesson on Letter B.

We started of with pasting some body parts for the Letter B. But Javier seems more interested in playing with the glue than pasting.

Admiring his completed work

This is our Mr Blue B holding a baseball bat

Next we do some colour sorting using foam and clothes peg. I cut out 4 foam rectangles of 4 different colour. Then I let Javier use the clothes peg to clip onto the foam. Initially, Javier have a hard to opening the peg, but with a little assistance from mummy, he can handle it very well after a few practices.

After clipping all the pegs onto the foam, I talk to Javier about the different colour again.

He like doing it. After completing it, he would take out the pegs and do it all over again.

Next we also do a craft on Bat, I trace his hand on the construction paper for the bat wings.

Then we paste the fangs, wings, head and goggly eyes on a orange construction paper.

The next activity is done by me, I just want to use the pipecleaner and bend into the B Shape and show Javier

I have done quite a number of Bs, Javier is also interested to bend the pipecleaner.

When he saw me draw butterfly on the drawing, he say he wanted to add in the caterpillar also.

Recently, he like the 'The very hungry Caterpillar' alot. He would ask me to read it again and again (for 2 months already).

Next, we have a really fun activity--- blowing bubble in the water.

Javier enjoyed it alot.

In action

After blowing a while, his hand also went inside the cup of water. :(

Our last activity of the lesson is broccoli stamping,
A lovely picture done by Javier and me. I add in 2 boys playing ball, which I told Javier one is gorgor and one is didi.

I also read 'Baby Bear Baby Bear What do you see" to them. The 2 boys like this book very much.
