  • Online now - Pattern sequence blocks Patterns help children learn sequencing and to make predictions which leads to mathematical skills, logic structure in algebra, and to establishing order in life. A toddler will sort green blocks from yellow ones as he builds a tower. He begins to notice things repeat in a certain order by size, shape or color. An older preschool child notices slightly more complicated sequencing such as knowing the days of the week, months of the year or odd and even numbering. Children learn best through play and this works very well when you teach a concept such as patterns. As they enjoy the activity, they will understand the sequencing of items and predict what comes next? If your child is of preschool age or below, I would suggest having them sort items before beginning any pattern activity. My mother kept a huge jar of assorted buttons on her dresser. She would often ask my sister and me to pick out a certain color button for her mending of an item. Of course we would enjoy sorting through the different styles, shapes and colors to find it. Little did we know that this was an actual learning activity for us. So, any task or activity you can think of that would make for a fun time can be used to teach patterns.

  • We’ve been updating our eco section . Sam (my 11 year old ) and I have been learning about how we can take teeny tiny small steps to move towards helping the environment . By no means are we up on a soapbox about being eco warriors BUT we are everyday earthlings trying to work out how we can make a small difference . The ban on plastic has helped us (maybe pushed us) and SAMS anxiety about the worlds resources ending (usually discussed at bedtime) 😬🙄 have prompted us to looking at how we can help. I wrote a blog yesterday (and in today’s newsletter) that explains to all other newbies some of the steps we’ve taken as a family to try and reduce plastics and care about the environment . It doesn’t use big words - it’s a newbie guide to helping yourself and your kids start moving towards a more eco conscious life 💁‍♀️ head to our blog by clicking on the profile link I’ve placed there (for the next few days ) x Have you guys made any tiny steps yourself lately ???
