Little Farmers’ Exploration Time πΎ
This month, the children learned about farm animals—their appearance, colors, and ways of living—through hands-on activities. From observing to expressing, every step reflects their growth β¨
π Fork Painting – Turkey Feather Art
Using forks as paint tools, the children explored different textures and lines to create colorful turkey feathers. Grasping, pressing, and directional control all happen naturally through this activity!
π Scissor Practice – Animal Cut-Outs
We practiced cutting animal shapes with safety scissors to strengthen hand muscles and focus. Our 2-year-9-month girl worked so carefully—watching her become steadier and more confident was such a wonderful surprise!
π Mess-Free Sensory Bag – Pig in the Mud
By sealing paint inside a sensory bag, the children used their fingers to “clean the pig / make mud for the pig.” No mess, but plenty of tactile stimulation—safe, fun, and engaging!
Through theme-based learning, the children not only use their hands and minds but also grow steadily in language, fine-motor skills, and creativity.
We look forward to more exciting farm adventures ahead! πΎπ΄π
This month, we are exploring the artwork “The Garden,” inspired by Claude Monet.
Through feather collages, doodle art, sticker combinations, and handprint leaves for our “Thankful Tree,” the children practiced:
β Fine motor skills
β Color recognition
β Creative expression
β Vocabulary related to emotions and gratitude
π§ͺTurkey Feather Mini Experiment ο½ Vinegar + Baking Soda Bubble Feathers
In this fun little science activity, the children explored:
βScientific observation (watching the chemical reaction happen)
βFine motor skills (squeezing and controlling the dropper)
βColor exploration (mixing and dissolving colors)
βCuriosity and early scientific thinking
We also learned the poem “Thanksgiving” and the Chinese classic poem γειΉ γ (“Ode to the Goose”).
Simple crafts, yet full of engagement and joy. Every piece of artwork is the child’s own way of saying “thank you.” π§‘
