Parents of Preschoolers  Discussion Forum

Hello everybody,

We are living in a camp in middle of the jungle as my husband works in a Hydropower project. I have 4.5 years old boy. We have a school here in our camp and he is going there. But I can’t send him to any kind of activity class here but I still want develop his creativity. For that I need some home activities which I can do with him. Can anybody suggest some activities for his age? That will be a great help.

Regards

ashley replied. hi,
i have few sugg. if u like.
1. play flash cards of words with your child. he will be familiar with the words and will improve his reading. then u can tell him to make a story using this words. u can also ask him to draw the pics. of the characters he has learned.

2. You can sit with him and make some decorative stuff using crayons, color papers, beads, colored threads. this way he will be more creative and his concentration will also improve.

3. You can play with him the puzzle games. like jigsaw made by him. (smaller one). missing something in the pic. (like eyes missing, or the tail of the donkey, then you can tell him to close his eyes and stick the tail)

4. you can play with him fishing game made of a samll pond in a tub and using magnets and paper fishes and frogs.

i think you will find this useful. if you try any of this and if u r happy let me know

luv asha
