 We made the easiest and best no cook play dough this week for fall.  This play dough is very simple and quick to make and provides a wonderful time of imaginative play and exploration for children. We explored No Cook Play dough for our 12 Months of Sensory Dough this month, and wow, is this…

bugs and other critters

I found a {insert the word gross} beetle on the floor.  I normally would take a tissue and throw it out, or if it’s a spider, I would get out the huge vacuum and get rid of it that way.  Not amused.  I have never liked bugs.  I have never wanted to touch bugs.  I…

reggio inspired playdough exploration

We have been enjoying child led playdough exploration around here lately.  Mirrors, objects from nature, and small parts can make play dough an inviting time of open ended learning and creation for little ones. {This post contains affiliate links, please see my disclosure policy.}  We shared 5 ways to make letters using playdough, and now we…

worms

My daughter is fearless.  Much more brave than I have ever been or will be.  She picks up these little creatures with the biggest smile.  Full of curiosity and wonder.  She tastes the dirt and smiles and then winces at the grit in her teeth.  This is what I cherish.  My worm loving. bug loving…

simple water play

  Just a simple time of non-directed water play.  I took away (read : threw out, good riddance) their pretend food.  (You can check out more at our Reggio Inspired Playroom post.)  And now, the water, the sticks, the leaves, the flowers are their pretend food.  They have a bunch of kitchen ware to use,…

reggio inspired learning about shapes

I rarely get to see my (almost!) four year old son and my (almost!) two year old daughter playing nicely together.  Dare I say collaborating?  It simply doesn’t happen around here.  Just trying to keep them both alive.  But the more I’ve brought nature into our home, small parts into our play, and allowed their…

reggio inspired preschool math

My son loves counting.  He loves math.  We count things all day.  Legos, spoons, blocks, books, his little sister’s dolls. We try to count to 30 every morning as part of our recitation for home preschool.  We also focus on a number each week.  We place that number in a basket, talk about the number, and…

reggio inspired nature table

Bringing nature indoors is not a new concept for me.  We have played with these items before.  However, I have not been leaving them out for individual, spontaneous exploration and play. You may have noticed that I am excited, thrilled actually, to start implementing a new approach to my mothering and my homeschooling.  Reggio-inspired learning…

Reggio inspired playroom

Where would I want to play? Am I excited to show my children the world? Is nature a part of their indoor play time? Are they able to creatively express themselves in their play space? What is beautiful? What sparks creativity? What begins the imagination? Are my children challenged in, and exposed to, number sense learning? Does their play…

what is art: a Reggio-inspired approach

Art is beautiful. I believe in exposing children to classical and beautiful art from a very young age. I believe children should be given natural and unique opportunities to create and express. I believe children should have an opportunity to emulate their favorite artists, both assisted and unassisted. I believe creating does not always mean…
