Tape Pull Fine Motor Activity

Jen — Fri, 29 Sep 2017 03:47:20 +0000

Fun fact? When we were going back and forth between Canada and Kuwait regularly and spending our holidays travelling, one of my go-to occupy-Miss-G plane items was tape. Washi tape usually, but I’d stash a roll of masking tape or painter’s tape in my bag in a pinch. I know that seems weird, but honestly… Read More

Pete the Cat and His Four Groovy Buttons: A Sewing Activity

Jen — Tue, 29 Apr 2014 14:00:00 +0000

For the last few days, Miss G has really been enjoying the new set-up she has happening at her creative table (for a little bit of background info on the whole idea behind her creative table, click here). While it would probably be more appropriate to call this a beading and lacing station, Gracen saw… Read More

Simple Play: Stacking O’s on Skewers

Jen — Mon, 20 Aug 2012 05:29:08 +0000

When I stumbled across this blog the other day and saw this activity, I knew I wanted to try it with Miss G. Already having all of the required materials on hand, we gave it a go this afternoon. While the original idea partners o-shaped cereal with play dough and uncooked spaghetti, I replaced the… Read More
