Hey guys,
This is not a fancy learning activity but the time we were spending outside was quite nice and educational. Also very practical and easy to set up...
Painting numbers in the snow was a super thing to do with my son. HE LOVES NUMBERS. HE LOVES SNOW. HE'S CRAZY ABOUT PAINTING! So all three in one was a huuge enjoyment for him.
I feel that we need to embrace these simple fun activities we can do with our little ones at home, because great things can happen from small things. Like this one right here!
We put on our jackets, took the number sand shapes and watercolors, and went out. It was sunny outside, we really had a great time.
We go out everyday, so It thought to try this. I saw the idea on instagram or somewhere and here it is!
All you need is a couple of water colors and some sand shapes.
You can skip the shapes in case you dont have them and it's still a good activity for your child to practice fine motor skills, let her/him creativity and imagination fly away and develop their artistic talent.
Snow paint requires no set up, you have everything you need there!
Also, this activity is a sensorial activity too. They can feel the snow, observe it and create! You can mix colors in the snow too! That would be so fun.
This is a fun way of to introduce numbers to your child or maybe you just want to fix these early mathematical skills like recognition and spelling numbers.
If your kid doesnt like cold, you can bring some snow inside in a large plastic box...just saying.
In the end he enjoyed painting on the ice. He was really excited to see how watercolors drip on the ice and how different colors are getting combined together.
You can replace numbers with letters, shapes of any kind. Also you ca bring out your animal figurine and observe their traces.
You can use food colorant if you want, instead of water colors. I think that one is much stronger in color.
I would appreciate your opinion about this. Is there something you would add to it? We still have snow so I wouldn't mind a few extra ideas 💙🤍
have a great time. missdeli ✨
