This type of Sand (Kinetic Sand Float) different from the regular kinetic sand yet still utilized for educational purposes and kids love it. It has a similar feel to a sandy play-dough. We have found so many advantages in using kinetic sand and kinetic Sand Float (KSF), such as:

Happy Weekend
The Social Weekend is here. I don't really know who wrote the quote of the week, however it did catch my attention because recently we were talking about planning a number of things. Sometimes we do things unexpected and without a plan and other times we spend much time planning for this or that. Todays quote summarizes it all.

Quote of the week:
“ You don’t always need a plan. Sometimes you just need to breath, trust, let go and see what happens. "

What a fun idea!
We love when we can include educational elements or moments into activities that most people would not really think about as educational.

We learned about this relatively new socks called “Educational Compound Word Socks” and it could not have been at a better time. We have been practicing all about compound words with Kira which made her very happy about these socks.

Sure enough you can go to the grocery store and by breadcrumbs, however it’s very easy to make your own and you are able to add the seasoning that you like.

We have found that there are 2 basic types of breadcrumbs, soft crumbs and the dry crumbs.

Fine motor skills are an essential part in the development of all children. By providing toys (motor skills tools/activities) to help them in the process is important and very practical.

Doing simple things such as holding (learning to manipulate) small objects or attaching things together may seem very simple to an adult, for children it is a different story. However when children are allowed to play with objects that allow for them to manipulate and develop their Fine Motor Skills the process becomes easier and before the age of 5 they should have a most Fine Motor Skills well developed.

We are surrounded by Color and it has been proven to be Energy in more ways that we imagine. Colors are part of every child early education, and yet one may think that it’s only about learning the many colors in life, however we can use color and it’s learning curve for so much more than that.

Inspired by all the beautiful colors of nature our girls love to use color for many art or craft projects. We encourage these type of activities and use them as an educational tool to expand their little brains and the knowledge within them.
