24.01.2022 Today we're cooking! Cooking activities promote self-help skills, which are crucial to developing children's independence. We are using kid-friendly knives and peelers so even the youngest children can help to peel and chop the vegetables. While we are cooking we also discuss healthy food choices, and why we need to eat a rainbow! ... #familydaycare #toddler #preschool #cooking #kidsinthekitchen #cookingwithkids #veggies #vegetables #learningthroughplay #playbasedlearning #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducation #earlychildhood #broccolini #carrot #zucchini #selfhelpskills #finemotorskills

14.01.2022 Rainbow Fizzy Tray! This is just bi-carb dyed with food colouring - a super simple science activity for toddlers. We are using pipettes filled with vinegar to observe the reaction between the vinegar and bi-carb. The different colours means they can experiment with colour mixing as well I will post our reactions in a little while!... #familydaycare #scienceweek #scienceforkids #kidsscience #experiment #colour #rainbow #toddler #preschool #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducation #earlychildhood #play #letthechildrenplay #bicarbandvinegar #fizzy #sensoryplay

11.01.2022 After a bit of a break, we're back! Today we're doing some super fun fly swatter paintings. This is a great messy, sensory activity, which is also an excellent hand-eye coordination, fine motor task! #familydaycareaustralia #familydaycare #toddler #preschool #painting #flyswatter #learningthroughplay #playbasedlearning #play #art #letthechildrenplay #earlychildhoodeducation #earlylearning #earlychildhood

09.01.2022 My 8 year old, Eamon, doesn't want to be left out! Today he is playing the patient, being poked and prodded, given needles and medicine, having his heartbeat and blood pressure taken dozen of times, all with a giant smile. We love Family Day Care ... #familydaycare #toddler #preschool #play #letthechildrenplay #playbasedlearning #learningthroughplay #earlylearning #earlychildhood #doctors #pretendplay

05.01.2022 This is Family Day Care. Today my 10 year old, Finn, drew a picture for his day care friends to paint, and told me he was going to help them with it. Now he's sitting with them to help with the watercolour process, offering words of encouragement, and just generally being an awesome helper. Guess I'll have a cuppa ... #familydaycare #toddler #preschool #painting #art #artforkids #kidsart #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducation #earlychildhood #letthechildrenplay #play #collaboration #watercolour

02.01.2022 Safe to say this one was a hit! I just had to share her reaction, this is one of the reasons I love my work - the excitement and wonder of children experiencing things for the first time is contagious (as you can tell from my reaction in the video ) See my previous post for information about this activity. #familydaycare #toddler #preschool #fdc #family #familydaycarelove #rainbow #colour #scienceweek #scienceforkids #kidsscience #experiment #bicarbandvinegar #earlylearning #earlychildhoodeducation #earlychildhood #letthechildrenplay #learningthroughplay #play
