Activities: Things to do With Children

  1. Make “ants on a log” with celery, peanut butter or cheese spread and raisins.

  2. Construct a “ balance beam” on the floor with yarn. Practice walking on it or alongside it.

  3. Use blocks, cardboard boxes, empty, clean milk cartons etc. to make towers, houses, shapes and so on.

  4. Blow soap bubbles.

  5. Use cornmeal like sand to make tunnels and hills.

  6. Make up dances of your own. Enjoy moving your body to the music.

  7. Plant some inexpensive seeds in dirt using a styrofoam cup as the planter. Water and watch daily; children love to see things growing! (Beans work well and are big and fast growing.)
