Pretend Poem Shop
This pretend poem shop is an imaginative and educational way to spend a rainy day. Not only will your child work on developing important writing skills, but she can also work on beginning math skills by adding up the cost of the poems sold and calculating change. Once the poems are complete, mail them off to faraway friends and family for a special and unique surprise! A pretend poem shop is a great way to introduce your child to various forms of poetry. For those just starting out, I recommend haiku poems because they are short and simple to do. Magnetic poetry kits help to make this process even more fun, and together you can experiment with various poems!
Plan Your Next Adventure Together
This craft and writing activity inspired by the Dr. Seuss book Oh, The Places You’ll Go! was a big hit with my kids! They both enjoyed crafting up their own mini suitcases from brown paper lunch bags. Later, they added index cards to draw pictures and outline some of the details for upcoming adventures they are planning! While researching ideas for travel, be sure to check out some of the great options for all-inclusive family vacations at Beaches Resorts. They have some of the best toddler-friendly facilities with Sesame Street® character breakfasts, kids camp, nurseries with professionally certified nannies, and much more.
