File Folder Game – Ice Cream Colour Matching (Letter I Week)

 

A lovely and fun playing file folder game where kids learn colours by matching the ice cream scoops and ice lollies with the correct cone or sticks, in terms of colours matching and words recognition. This lovely template was download from Mr Printable website.

The little pocket on the front cover can be used to store the scoops and lollies. 

 

To make it more solid and durable, I use foam paper as ice cream scoops and lollies instead from the printout. The colours look brighter with foam papers too.

I love this file folder game and so as Debo. It looks like an ice cream selling store, attractive and fun playing while kids can learn and keep them busy… at least for some moment.

Busy Bag – Clothesline Play

 

Another easy made busy bag – Clothesline Play. This is a fine motor skills game to train kids in using clothespin and hanging clothes. I am very wish that Debo can help me do all the house works including hang clothes, but seems need to wait for few more years… too short for her now.

Ok, the materials needed are simple:

• Felts or fabrics pieces (or even can use doll’s clothes)
• Clothespins
• String

How to make it?

1. Cut the felts or fabrics in clothing shapes, you may download the clothing patterns from here.

Just one step and is all done. Tie the string and have your little one start playing it~ Is really fun … at least I am enjoying playing it too ^_^

Busy Bag – Button Snake

Button snake is a fun way for our little one to learn “buttoning” while building up their fine motor skills. This is easy to make and fun to play. Here are the materials needed:

• Button (is possible, choose a big button)
• Felts
• Ribbon

How to make this?

First, cut some coloured felts into square or any shapes as you like. Make a slit in the center of the felt as the “button hole”.

Then, sew the button on the end of the ribbon. I had sew the other end of the ribbon to make it as a bracelet, so that my kid can put her hands in to play around after “buttoning” all the felts.

That’s all, simple and easy. It may not easy for the little one to pass the button through the hole for the beginning, after trying few times, they can easily get the tricks in doing so.

Happy Trying ~
