Montessori at Home (9) : Green Week ♥ 在家蒙特梭利 (9) : 认识青色

This is a really tough Tot School session for me, i mean for the preparation job. I searched online and only get few ideas which suitable for us. Well, we still completed it, and here are what we done for green week!

这个主题，好难。我做了好久的功课都无法收集到足够适合的游戏。当然，最终还是完成了，但是好像没有很精彩。 :p

ღ  Creative Art ღ 创意时间

Handprint Art ：GreenFrog 青蛙手印画

This is what Chen like most among all the activities.

Do refer to our previous post for details :

这个之前有详细介绍过 ： 

Let handprint art freezes the precious moment for you ♥ 手印画，把小手印留下~

Vegetable Printing Art by Green Celery 芹菜按印画

Painting time, Again~ Yeah, i'm really ran out of ideas. XD

真的找不到太多适合的游戏，所以又再来个绘画时间！

Very simple preparation job 简单的材料

Based on previous experience, i never expected she could follow my instruction, but surprisingly she made it again! :)
根据以往的经验，晨通常是脱缰野马，不会听从我的指示。但是经过好几个星期的Tot School后，我发现她开始能够接受指令了，这至少是好的开始。:)

ღ DIY Puzzle ღ 自制拼图

Well, my girl is addicted to puzzle recently, so i tried to make a green theme puzzle for her. Anyway, the result is not good. My conclusion to DIY puzzle is, maybe it is limited to very simple type which is 2-3pcs puzzle. When i tried to make a 5-6pcs puzzle, i found it is too difficult for a toddler to go on with it. It was too light in weight, and don't have any frame to guide in fixing the position, it might be too challenging for a toddler.

最近晨很爱拍拼图，可以独自拍上一个小时（当然不是每次啦~)，所以这次我就以青色为主题再次自制拼图。但是，结果是很不好用哦~之前制作的简单版拼图（2-3片），到今天晨偶尔还会拿出来玩。这次我是把图片分割成5-6片，来个进阶版，可是明显失败了~当片数多了，自制拼图就显得难以操控。在拼的时候很难被固定位置。然后晨完了一次后就头也不回的不再碰它~ =.=

Green Bean Sensory Puzzle Box

I tried to fix it with add on magnet on the back of the puzzle, but it is still difficult to be fixed on position. Hmm~~ i better give up on DIY puzzle~

我后来还有尝试改良，贴了magnet在后背，但是还是不好操控，所以今后还是乖乖到外买拼图吧~

ღ Tracing Activity ღ 小手操控训练

Match complete vegetables with its half tracing worksheet, anyway, Chen not willing or maybe not able to complete it, just simply draw on it~ Well, i have to keep it up first and try next round~

完整蔬菜和切半图配对Tracing活动，晨这次不知是没听懂还是能力未及，当我问她A蔬菜的切半图是哪个时，她能够用手指出答案，可是就是连接不到~没关系，我们下次再试。:)

ღ At-Home Science : Color Mixing Experiment ღ 小小实验家： 颜色混合

I nearly forgot to do this experiment, until receive sweet reminder from Min~ ^^

I tried to use food coloring to make ice cube, and below are actually blue and yellow color ice cube that i made. I felt that it will confuse my girl as the yellow color maybe is really to dark and become orange~

先用了食用颜料来准备混色用的黄色及蓝色冰砖，可是效果不理想哦~黄色看起来就像橙色，我觉得这样好像会误导孩子，所以马上把水彩半搬了出来。

Still can get green, but i decided to use watercolor to redo this experiment.

Yellow + Blue = Green!

匆忙中终于混色成功！

ღ First Trial for Chopstick ღ 筷子初体验

I found these chopstick(which are presents from friends) during i tidy up my drawer and came out with this idea. Using chopstick require great dexterity and strong fine motor skills, but my intention was just let her to try out on this.

无意间找到了这两双筷子，然后有了这个想法，让晨开始接触筷子吧~然后快速把activity tray准备好。

This is first trial and of course she can't do it well. Anyway, she like this activity as well~

初次尝试，然后她也没办法掌握好，但是，就当是个有趣的游戏来进行也不错~

During the period, i also let this little girl to help on mixing grains, this is another efficient method to keep  this little girl busy while improving her eye-hand coordination. 

这段时期妈妈很忙，就尽量让她参与家事。这次是混合谷粮活动，小人儿玩得相当开心哦~
