Pond & River Center Ideas

This week, as you know, we are expanding our Pond & River Theme printables.  I’ve found some fabulous ideas that can be used for independent centers.

Pattern Blocks

PreKinders has quite the assortment of FREE pattern block designs.  She offers them in color and black and white.  There are several that fit perfectly with our pond unit.  Look for the duck, turtle, dragonfly and fish.

Please note that not all pattern blocks are the same size, therefore not all might fit perfectly with the template provided above.

Use these templates to create your own pattern blocks.  You can also purchase them through Amazon or other various educational websites.

Pretend Play

We are loving our miniatures that we found at Hobby Lobby.  Make sure and use the 40% off of one item coupon that they usually send twice a month to their email subscribers.  You can also purchase them through Amazon.

Safari LTD River Toob.

You can use them in a variety of ways, such as in a sensory bin or even as a counting manipulative.  My son just loves to play with them and if I only pull them out at a specific time it keeps him well entertained.

Stamping

Work on letter recognition with our Stamping Strips.  To do this activity you will need uppercase or lowercase stamps and an ink pad.

Hope you have fun exploring ponds & rivers.

Polar Lands Center Ideas

Magnet Pages

Another set of Magnet pages for you.  Includes all the polar land animals that are included in our unit this week.

Snake Tracks Art

This week we have a craft that will fit in with our desert theme.  Follow the directions below to make this cool snake track artwork!

Here is what you will need:

• Some pieces of string-like things that are different widths (I used ribbon, yarn, a pipe cleaner, and bead necklace)
• Construction Paper
• Some Paint (We used craft paint, but you can use finger paint)

 

Directions:

• Take the construction paper and lay it in front of your kiddo
• Talk to your tot about snakes, and tell them that you are going to pretend the pieces of string are snakes
• Dip the string in some paint, and let your kiddo drag it across the paper
• Have you kiddo wiggle the string as they pull it, and talk about the differences in the patterns they make

When your done you will have a cool snake pattern piece of art. 

If you want a paint free version, let your kid drag the string through some sand and talk about the patterns!

Desert Centers

This week we are expanding our Desert Theme printables. 

I have to be honest, this unit was tough. But, I’ve manage to find some fabulous resources that can be used in independent centers or even as an additional supplement to our printables. 

Magnet Pages

Since I had a hard time locating already made printables that would work in a center type environment, I went ahead and made some for you.  BIG THANKS to Chloe for the fabulous suggestion of a magnet center!!

Click to Download a zip file of 8 magnet pages.

You can use several different things with your magnet pages. Do-a-Dot Paints work great, but then you’ll only get one use out of them.  I recommend laminating the pages and using Bingo Chips, Power Magnets or homemade pom-pom magnets with them.

Art

First-School has a variety of desert animal coloring pages. Print off the ones your child would be more interested in and then let them have at it.

Click to Download.

Pretend Play

I saw these awesome miniatures at Hobby Lobby last summer, but wasn’t sure if they were worth the price ($8.99).  However, since then I’ve seen several mommy bloggers use them, so I took the plunge.

Safari LTD Desert Toob.

I think they will work perfectly with the different place units we’ve created.   You can use them in a variety of ways, such as in a sensory bin or even as a counting manipulative.  I personally thought the boy would just love to play with them and if I only pull them out at a specific time I’m sure it would keep him well entertained.

Hope you have fun exploring the desert.
