Teaching can be easy and fun

Why shouldn't you have fun while you teach your kids the abcs, how to count or what animal says moo. I think that kids learn best when they are having fun. I am setting out to teach my one and a half year old. I want to teach him how to be a good friend, how to show love, all the animals that live on a farm and so much more. I am writing this blog not even knowing if anyone will read it but hoping someone will find inspiration to have fun while teaching their toddler.

Insect
Lesson- What is an insect? Count the insects. Get a bag
of insects and count all of them. If you have an older child
you can use them to do math. You can also talk about
the different bugs. How many legs do they have? What
color are they? Which ones look alike?
Game- Clean mud, make this mud with your kids and
let them put their insects in it.
Book- The insect book, The Best Book of Bugs, Insect soup,

Ice
Lesson- Ice is cold! How does it feel when you touch the ice?
Have something Warm (warm wash cloth), and something room
temp (a banana), and the ice.
Game- 'Move those cubes'.... Grab two buckets, put ice cubes in
one bucket and then move them while counting to another. You
can ever put them back in the ice cube tray.
Craft- Ice drawing, Grab some ice cubes and go outside. Make
drawings with the ice on the concrete.
Activity- Ice Floats. Get a cup of water and see what floats and
what sinks. Get coins and leaves etc.
