Tot School: O is for Owl/ Bird Week


Tiger's 20.5 months

We did Bird Theme for 2 whole weeks.

By the end of 2nd week, Tiger was saying "NO!" to all the trays.



Tot Trays:
Our Owl/birds tot trays setup here

Dough/free play tray
He loved this tray.
I modelled rolling and shaping the dough into little balls.
Here he was attempting to do the same.

Worksheets:
He was very much into worksheets as well.
So much so, he kept requesting for more!
He really enjoys painting, dotting, scribbling and making a mess!

M&D See & Spell:
He loved this, as usual.
Practiced his phonics, fine motor and independent work.

Mini meltdown:
He he, my bad....
I gave him a 'n' instead of an 'u' for DUCK and it didn't fit!
Bwahahaha....  :p

Sticker/art activity:
A blast!
There is no failing when you give a toddler stickers  ^.^
Oh, when I buy the cheapo stickers (like this one), I just sit back and relax.
These, he can unpeel and stick by himself.

Tangram:
He only played with this once after I demonstrated.
Too advanced for him.
Told me to put it back on the shelf!

An unexpected visitor:
*Mr Spider* on our whiteboard!
Tiger still calls all bugs "kah kah" (It's a chinese thing)
I drew a water spout and we sang 'Incy Wincy Spider' too many times
He requests for the same song whenever it rains.

Sensory Bin:
He did a lot scooping and some pouring this week

Crafty goodness:
We made a bird by recycling McD's drinks carton


Bird watching
 

Reading with puppets

Glue and Paste:
Tiger's art.
Can't tell if it is an owl anymore!

Free art activity
Toilet paper tube printing

Painting with different knobbed brushes

Phonics play:
Matching with lowercase sticky alphabets

Teaching by Tiger:
reciting numbers to his pals


We are skipping letters P, Q, R and jumping to Letter T for train/transportation next week.

Love your blog and your baby! You have great ideas and so much energy! Was wondering if you knew how I could get copies of FunThinkers book 1 and 2. Can't seem to find them available online or in US, but saw they are available in Malaysia. Best wishes as you wait for Little Dragon!

Hi,

Thank you!

When I bought the Fun Thinkers set from Grolier, the salesman mentioned that the books/card are replacable without extra charges. MAybe you can call Grolier US directly and ask them? Sorry, not sure where else I can purchase them.
