Activities to Do at Home with Your Children

• Bake some cookies or muffins with your children. Let them measure out the ingredients.
• Go for a walk around town with your child and point out the different signs like: STOP, OPEN, CLOSED, etc
• Turn off the TV and play charades, monopoly or a game of cards. Make it a weekly activity.
• Make family books together. Have your children draw pictures and write a story about your family. Make a special cloth binder for your children’s work. You can add pictures too! Do this once a year and you will have a keepsake for your children when they are older.
• Make up food cards for when you go to the grocery store. You can either draw or cut out pictures from magazines of different food items. Bring the food cards to the store and ask your children to go and get the food that is on the card.
