Create Line Design PrintsLine designs can be straight, curvy, zigzagged, or wavy. Teach your child how to create lots and lots of line designs by wrapping string around wooden blocks, and using them to create line-filled prints. Your young child can press the wrapped blocks onto plates filled with various colors of tempera paints. Challenge them to fill an entire paper with lines!
What You Need:
Small boxes or wooden or plastic shapesStringTapeScissorsTempera paintPaper platesWhite paper
What You Do:
1. Look around your house for different types of lines with your child. Lots of things are made up of lines! Check out patterns on your furniture, designs on the curtains, and the siding of your house. Encourage them to think of words to describe all the different kinds of lines you find.
2. Next, help them find several blocks or small boxes around the house to use for creating their piece of art.3. Provide your child with lengths of string to use for wrapping the blocks. Tape one end to the block and then allow them to wrap
the shape—a great way to boost those fine motor skills. Once the string has been used up, tape the other end to secure it in place.
4. Now, place a small amount of tempera paint in paper plates. Position a paper next to your child along with the wrapped shapes.5. Invite them to press the string-wrapped shapes in the tempera paint, and then stamp them onto their paper to create a line
design.6. Use the finished line design artwork as wrapping paper, or for decorating the front of a handmade card!

Create Your Own Book of WonderRecord your child’s learning by creating your very own “Bookof Wonder” where your child can record their questions,ideas, drawings, and all the things they learn from the worldaround them!
What You Need:
Brown packing paperA variety of coloring materialsPrinter (optional for printing pictures)Duct tape (for binding the top of the book)A variety of creative materials (e.g., paint, magazinepictures, stickers, photographs, etc.)
What You Do:
Today, you will be creating a modified version of Claire Warden’s Floorbook Approach. Floorbooks are blank books where teachers and parents record children’s voices, actions, and ideas. Here’s how to start inquiry learning with your child:
1. Get out the large brown packing paper. Cut the paper into large squares and duct-tape the top.
2. On the front of your book, have your child support you in writing their name.
3. Use your “Book of Wonder” with your child by:
Noticing what they are playing with and taking pictures. Place the pictures in the book after printing them out and encourage yourchild to talk about what they were creating or thinking. Write down their ideas.Record interesting and surprising things your child says. If your child makes a connection (e.g., snails have teeth for biting thingsand I have teeth for biting things) write it down to see all the learning that is taking place!Encourage your child to draw pictures, create artwork with paint and various coloring materials, ask questions, create collageswith pictures from magazines.Get out the “Book of Wonder” after you go on a special vacation, road trip, or have an awesome experience with your family. Forexample, if you go to a pumpkin patch, encourage your child to draw and write about their experience when they get home.Extend their learning by printing out pictures and placing them in the book,
Keep the “Book of Wonder” in your child’s room and look at the book before bed each night. This will encourage your child to feelproud and take ownership of all of their learning. Soon your child will want to show off their special book to family and friends!

Game 102
A Sharing Place
Create a space in your home
where your family can share
objects with each other.
Your child will enjoy sharing,
talking, and hearing what other
family members say.
Grandma!
Yes, there you are with Grandma in the park. That was a fun day.
Why this is importantYour child may enjoy sharing but may also need help doing it. You can encourage and expand this behavior by providing a family sharing place. Together you will talk about the shared items. Words will become the principal way of sharing as your child grows, and he will enjoy the stories that accompany each object. He will learn that although he cannot take home all objects and experiences, he can share them through his words and drawings, and later with his letters and photographs.
What you doFind a space in your home to dedicate to sharing. The space should include a flat surface and an upright surface for hanging items. You can use a box or low shelf with a cork board or cloth hanging behind. Make sure the flat space is within your child’s reach. If you hang items on a cork board, make sure thumb tacks or push pins are kept out of your child’s reach.
Draw your child’s attention to an object on display: Look, Alex, here’s a letter. It’s from Grandma. She sent us a new picture.
Give him time to handle the object and then later share it with other family members. He may ask questions about the item to help him remember it.
Encourage your child to share an object with you, and then thank him for his contribution to the sharing space.
Let’s read together!
David’s Drawings by Cathryn Falwell
Another ideaRemind your child about the
sharing place when walking outside or playing in the park. Help him find
interesting objects throughout his day that he can place in the sharing space.
You can also encourage him to display his artwork for everyone to enjoy.

Game 103
The Duck Said…Read a familiar book to
your child and pause in the
middle of a repeated line.
Your child will practice
using words by filling in the
blanks of the familiar story.
Who’s that tripping over…
…my bridge!
Why this is importantWhen you read stories to children they hear many new words used in different ways. Your child will increase her understanding, memory, and use of words as she listens to a story. She may also begin to notice printed words on a page. Her experiences of listening and helping to tell a story will help her learn to love reading. Completing, or filling in, a familiar sentence is an easy way for her to practice her memory skills and use her growing vocabulary.
What you doChoose a familiar story, such as The Little Red Hen, which has repeated words and sounds.
Invite your child to say the repetitive lines in the story as you read. For example, when the Hen asks who will plant the wheat, you can read, The Duck said… Then let her fill in the words, Not I!
Point to the words as she says them. Later, encourage her to point to the words.
Challenge her by leaving out a word that shows the sequence of the story. For example, read Who will help me…this wheat? She will need to choose from several words (plant, water, cut, or eat) by remembering what has already happened and what comes next.
Let’s read together!
The Little Red Hen by Byron Barton
Another ideaYou can keep your child
interested in this activity by choosing funny stories with repeated
noises and sounds. Stories about animals, machines that act like people, or
families and familiar situations provide fun opportunities for your child to
contribute to telling the story.
Copyright 2008 Joseph SparlingEsta actividad es apropiada para los niños y para las niñas.
Juego 102
Un lugar para compartir
Cree un espacio en su hogar
donde su familia pueda
compartir objetos.
Su niño disfrutará compartiendo,
hablando y oyendo lo que dicen
otros parientes.
¡Abuela!
Aquí están la abuela y tú en el parque. Ese fue un día muy divertido.
¡Leamos juntos!
Los dibujos de David Cathryn Falwell
Otra idea
Cuando salgan a caminar o cuando jueguen en el parque, recuérdele al niño el lugar para
compartir y ayúdele a encontrar objetos interesantes que podría agregarle. Usted
también podría animarlo a exhibir sus obras de arte para que todos las
disfruten.
Por qué es importanteSu niño podría disfrutar compartiendo pero es posible que necesite ayuda para hacerlo. Usted podrá estimular y expandir su comportamiento proporcionando un lugar para que la familia comparta. Allí podrán hablar acerca de los objetos compartidos. Las palabras se convertirán en la principal manera de compartir a medida que su niño crezca y él disfrutará las historias que acompañan a cada objeto. Él aprenderá que puede compartir dichos objetos mediante las palabras y los dibujos y, posteriormente, mediante cartas y fotos.
Qué hacer Dedique un espacio en su hogar para compartir. Dicho espacio debe incluir una superficie plana
y un lugar para colgar objetos. Usted podría usar una caja o un anaquel bajo con un tablero de corcho o tela colgada detrás. Asegúrese de que el espacio plano esté al alcance de su niño. Si usted cuelga algo en un tablero de corcho, verifique que las tachuelas estén fuera del alcance de su niño.
Dirija la atención del niño a un objeto exhibido. Mira, Alex, aquí hay una carta. Es una carta de la abuela. Ella nos envió una foto.
Déle tiempo para que explore el objeto y luego lo comparta con otros parientes. Él podría hacerle preguntas que le servirán para recordar el objeto.
Anime a su niño a compartir un objeto con usted y agradézcale la contribución que haga al espacio para compartir.
Copyright 2008 Joseph SparlingEsta actividad es apropiada para los niños y para las niñas.
Juego 103
El pato dijo…Léale un cuento conocido
a su niña y deténgase en
medio de una frase que
se repita.
Su niña practicará usando
palabras para completar
lo que falta en el
cuento conocido.
¿Quién está pasando por encima de…?
¡… mi puente!
¡Leamos juntos!
La gallinita roja Byron Barton
Otra idea
Usted podrá mantener interesada a su niña en esta
actividad escogiendo historias divertidas con ruidos y sonidos repetidos.
Los cuentos de animales, máquinas que actúan como personas o familias
en situaciones conocidas ofrecen oportunidades divertidas para que su niña participe en el relato de la
historia.
Por qué es importanteAl leerles historias a los niños, ellos oyen muchas palabras usadas de distintas maneras. Al oír un cuento su niña aumentará la comprensión y la memoria y ampliará el vocabulario. Además ella podría comenzar a percibir las palabras escritas en una página. Sus experiencias escuchando y ayudándo a relatar el cuento, estimularán su aprecio por la lectura. Completar una frase conocida es una manera fácil de que ponga en práctica la memoria y use su creciente vocabulario.
Qué hacer Elija un cuento conocido, como La gallinita roja, que tiene palabras y sonidos repetidos.
Invite a la niña a decir las frases que se repitan en el cuento mientras usted se lo lee. Por ejemplo, cuando la gallinita pregunte: ¿Quién quiere ayudarme a plantar este grano? usted podría leerle, El pato dijo... y permitirle a ella completar la frase diciendo: ¡Yo no!
Señale las palabras en el libro al tiempo que se las dice. Más adelante, anímela señalar las palabras.
Para hacer el juego más exigente, omita una palabra que muestre la secuencia del cuento. Lea, por ejemplo, ¿Quién quiere ayudarme a ....el trigo? Ella deberá escoger entre varias palabras (segar, trillar, moler, comer) al recordar lo ocurrido y lo que ocurrirá después.
