Let the Magic Begin!

I believed teaching Marhematics was the most difficult thing in the world before I became a mom! And the whole world changed, forever. I miss all the lone moments. I miss the quiet of my house. I miss the hours i spent lying with a face pack, a hair pack, body pack. Phew! I miss thinking about myself. Now all I do, all I think, all I hear, all I dream is about my baby. But I do realize that time is gonna fly by, as it usually does, and I will again be left alone. But that me time will never be me again. Life has changed, once for all. So I am not complaining either about the past that is gone and the future that is about to happen. I want to live in the moment. I want to feel magic today. Magic now. I want to be here. I want to be this moment..

Colour their World

Add a colorful description. Always add a color word when talking about items in your environment. For example, instead of“Can you bring mommy the ball? Say “Can you bring mommy the red ball?” Find colorful foods. Parents are encouraged to feed children a colorful diet to aide in balanced nutrition. Take advantage of the rainbow of foods on your plate everyday by asking your little one to show you the red food on her plate or ask her what color her peas are. As eating is something that is done several times daily, simply taking a moment at each meal and snack to notice colors will make your child more aware and interested in colors. Color your bath time. You can ask them what color they would like their bath to be and create it using 2 colors if necessary. This is also a great introduction to the science skill of color mixing. Bath crayons (washable soap crayons used to write on the bathtub and tiles) are also a wonderful springboard for talking about colors. A colorful famil...
