Crafts and some learning too

Today we did some cool work of art and at the same time Mona learned a few new things.
It was all about shapes and colors and sorting.
I cut different shapes in different sizes and in different colored papers.
First I had Mona sort them by shapes, then by size, and then by color. She really enjoyed the sorting game and this is one that we will be doing a lot in the future.
Then i took the glue out and Mona got so excited!!
I first let her experiment how to glue the shapes on a piece of paper. She was having such a blast at it.
Then i showed her how to make a robot out of the shapes. I only showed her once, and she quickly got the hang of it. She actually did 3 very different robots by herself. The first one was with a little bit of instruction of where to put the body parts and for the other two she did it on her own and she was really proud of her master piece!
Here is a picture of her robots and shapes.


And earlier in the morning, we created a little tambourine/shaker!
I got the idea from another blog. We used two paper plates, we drew/decorated them first, then put some swirly dry pasta in one of the plates and covered it with the other plate and then stapled them together all around. She loves her little tambourine/shaker!
It was quick and easy to do and we have another instrument to add to her big collection already!
More noise in the house!!! lol...
