I love it when I can think of quick ideas using household items instead of having to buy (or make) anything!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08382299215040850847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536964614643414021.post-67543025925810053202008-03-09T07:46:00.000-04:002008-03-09T07:46:00.000-04:00I LOVE this!

As soon as we started having "school" at the coffee table with my son's little chair and a box of the "tools" his skills on several activities improved greatly.Evensporhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17005685575858296425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536964614643414021.post-44236106671323710912008-03-08T11:42:00.000-05:002008-03-08T11:42:00.000-05:00Before we do a work, I tell her to go get her rug....Before we do a work, I tell her to go get her rug. She gets it and I help her spread it out and that is where we work. She has also started getting the rug without me telling her which is exciting. Its my understanding that the rug provides a boundary and marks the space where the child is working. I love using a rug because it helps O keep everything together instead of spread around the room.

Is that the way to showcase the activity for the day? I'm just curious about the process. Thanks!Michiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03438417221237116318noreply@blogger.com
