Newspapers and stickers
A quick activity the kids did together earlier today.
You’d only need :
– a few pages of some old newspaper (choose ones with ‘colours’ on them)
– scissors and glue
– extra stickers and crayons for the little one
Basically, Anya made ‘newspaper people’ today, from newspaper cut-outs.
I asked her for the colours (ie. colours of the person’s dress, hair, shoes, etc), and I cut it out for her. She got to choose the ‘dress pattern’ from the newspaper’s ‘fashion spread’. After they’re all cut out, she stuck them on a piece of white paper.
As for Vai, I cut out different shapes for him (and went through the different shape names so he could learn these too), put on some glue on the back, and let him stick them on his paper.
In the end, he stuck on some stickers and scribbled away.
Anya sure was pleased with her ‘newspaper girl’ *smile*
