Since the beginning of the semester, I've stopped having hobbies! My Etsy stores are in a perpetual vacation mode and all my stuff is boxed up. All my time goes into school work since I've taken too many classes, but there is definitely a creative aspect to early childhood education. And there is a light at the end of the tunnel considering this is my last semester. Hopefully I can get a job and stop being a poor person! Das is all maximum santzgaut!
Preschool Newsletter:
I used photoshop to create a fictional newsletter for my center "Sweet Peas". It turned out incredibly cute.
Felt Pizzas for the dramatic play center:
I cut cardboard boxes into two circles and covered them with off-white felt to create a pizza crust. Then I used felt to create the sauce and pizza toppings. Children can create their own pizzas in the dramatic play area and use the small pizza boxes to play restaurant. My preschoolers (ages 3-5) loved it.
Caterpillar ABC/Numbers felt game:
I bought several pieces of colored felt and cut them into circles. I added felt stick-on letters and numbers. I made a caterpillar head and children can create an entire caterpillar by using the pieces. Believe it or not, felt boards are a big subject in early childhood.
I'm not good with goodbyes so...Later.
