Connections with your children is about daily interactions and communication, and being involved and interested in what they do and what they have to say.
Children learn through watching, listening, modeling, experimenting and most of all FUN, and exploring is one of the many ways they learn and express their creativity.
So for today's fun activity, I thought this amazing white flower would be a great activity you and your child could work on together.
What can you do with the photo of the flower that I took along the roadside?
There are two things that you can talk about with your child:
Younger child –
(1) Spot the bees
(2) Trace the flower
Older child
(1) Spell the word white and flower. Print out the writing sheet: https://s3.amazonaws.com/GoKids-Article/white_colour.pdf
(2) Learn to write the number 2 and spell the word two: https://s3.amazonaws.com/gokidsfunactivities/2.pdf
(3) Discuss the petals of the flowers and the leaves
Why is leaf green in colour?
How do bees make honey?
(4) For more advanced research, head to http://www.buzzaboutbees.net/, google search to learn more about bees or head to the library with your children.
