Families today take many different forms: two parents, one parent, blended and
extended. But all families play an
important role in a child's life. Children have so much to share.
"Together Time" activities and sincere attention will let them know
you value their thoughts and ideas. We are all UNIQUE~~
We Are All Unique
Explain how everyone has fingerprints unlike anyone
else. Have all the family members
make a thumbprint collage. Press
your thumb on an ink stamp pad. Press
the thumbs down on white paper and label with everyone's name. Look through a magnifying glass and
compare prints.
Bag of Disguises Game
No matter what you put on your body---you are still
"you". It's fun to
experiment with disguises. Provide
a bag or box of disguise props and a mirror---what fun!!! Suggestions for your box are wigs,
make-up, hats, helmets, uniforms, clothing, ties, jewelry, scarves, glasses and
so on. Bring out the camera, as
this is a great time for humorous picture taking.
Oh! Baby
Start with reading library books about animals and their
babies. Discuss the similarities and differences between parents and their
young. Then enjoy going through old family photo albums. Notice the changes of
your children as they have grown through the years. Last, compare pictures of
yourself and your parents to your children today. Are there many physical
traits across the generations?
See you later for the letter V,
