Personalized School Bus with the Old Shoe Box
by Cheryl Villareal on Feb 12th, 2012
This activity was supposedly a really simple art and craft activity for our theme on transportation. However, as we were planning it, more ideas kept popping out and we eventually came up with this. The idea came from the teachers, but it wouldn’t have turned out this great if the kids weren’t as creative! Good job kids! What you will need Shoe box Yellow cartolina/ paper Thin strip of black paper 4 circul...Read More » Tags

by Cheryl Villareal on May 6th, 2011
There's no better gift to give our moms than a hug and kiss, so why not make this moment last a little longer with a HUG card? Of course, this hug may not give the warmth that a real hug could give, still, it's a great gift to give! - What you will need Cardboard paper Bond paper Paint Yarn Tape Print out of child's picture Crayons or other coloring materials - Step 1: Decorate the card by pasting or drawing.

Life of a Preschooler – Last Day of School Activity
by Cheryl Villareal on May 2nd, 2011
When the last day of school rolled in, my co-teachers and I tried to think of something fun the kids could do to commemorate their first year in preschool! I thought of so many wonderful ideas, only, they required a pre-activity which the child should have done at the beginning of the school year! :( Now what? I almost gave up and resorted to just letting the kids draw something about school, when on the very last minute, we decided to funk up th...Read More » Tags

Bib Necklace of Family Members
by Cheryl Villareal on Feb 11th, 2011
There are so many activities that come to mind when you think of FAMILIES, however, we try not to be too redundant else risk our students getting bored. - We wondered what activity we could do that would make the children more aware of the number of people in their families, as well as recognize the roles each one plays. We thought of several ideas, but none which really made us say, "This is it!"... until... - My co-teacher told me a...Read More » Tags

Jazzed Up Christmas Stockings
by Cheryl Villareal on Dec 24th, 2010
Why spend huge amounts of money to buy the perfect Christmas stocking when the kids can make their own? It may not be as nice to others as a store bought stocking, but I assure you, that personal touch will do wonders! The kids will surely love it more. - What you will need Fabric Glue/ All purpose glue or wood glue Foam shapes/ Sequins and other random stuff to glue unto the stocking Christmas Stocking or plain sock Glitter glue ...Read More » Tags

Family Picture Ornament
by Cheryl Villareal on Dec 22nd, 2010
First of all, I'm really not sure what to call this! My partner and I saw an ornament via the internet where in they used a hanger and hung other stars below. We liked the idea but decided to try something else. So instead of a simple wrapped up hanger, we decided to make a frame using tinsel. *Note: This is a 2 to 3 day activity. Let the child do each part per day. It would be tiring to finish them all in just one day. - What you will n...Read More » Tags

Little Paper Plate Angels
by Cheryl Villareal on Dec 21st, 2010
Another great craft this holiday season would be to make Christmas angels! But why limit it to the holidays? You can do it all year round! It would even be a wonderful activity for the start of school! We wanted the toddlers to have their own personalized angels, but we wanted it to be different. So with the help of Adobe Photoshop, I made some funky looking faces for the kids by changing their hair color and making them look a little bit like...Read More » Tags

Personalized Santa Ornament
by Cheryl Villareal on Dec 4th, 2010
Besides my teaching job in the preschool, I also work with 2 other kids. One age 8, and another age 2. Since Christmas is coming up, my 8 year old tutee asked... or should I say BEGGED that we do some Christmas art. I agreed. (as long as she didn't have much homew0rk). I was trying to come up with activities that they both could do together, but the activities I kept coming up with were those that would be great for a toddler but not for a scho...Read More » Tags

Handprint Paperweight
by Cheryl Villareal on Sep 20th, 2010
What can your hands do? My hands can clap! My hands can roll! My hands can shake! My hands can tap! This was basically how we started our topic on hands! There were even kids who started saying that their hands can WALK. This led us to start trying a variety of nonsense things. We tried walking with our hands; we tried feeding our hands; we tried looking with our hands and more! The kids had so much fun acting silly, trying to let their hands do ...Read More » Tags
