What shape is the door? doorknob? or the plate on the dinner table? or the storybook that you are reading tonight? The basic learning activities are pretty much the same for each category. You can first teach the child to identify the shapes, color or texture of something. Second, matching it to find similarities and differences. Then making patterns the child can match This may sound very simple to us, but for a child it can be a very fun and rewarding experience. Call Hie shapes by name as you use them or while the child is putting them with the shapes that match. Shapes . . . one of the best sources of shapes is a good set of blocks. A good set would be one like the toy lending library offers, 60 blocks of different colors (red yellow or blue) child learns about his world through his senses, sight touch, taste, smell, and hearing. The more we can involve his senses in exploring the world around him, the more he uses his senses the faster he can and will learn. Making the child aware of the things he is seeing, hearing, feeling, touching and smelling will help him to be more observant, his perception will be refined and more accurate. Learning through the senses and working with shapes, and color, and textures ties in very well with the A childs development language because one of the desired end results is being able to express ones thoughts verbally, to tell what he experiences sensually. He should be able to tell you how something feels. Is it smooth or scratchy? hard or soft? Is it sticky? He should be able to tell you if the snow is cold or if the cookie is hot. Or if the foods he eats are spicy or bland? Shapes such as the circle, square, and triangle are basic units of art, construction and most things around us. The child can understand his world better with an understanding of and be able to be familiar with shapes around him. One of the nice things about shapes, colors, and textures is that they are all around us. Each and every object has a shape, color and texture, so most of this learning can be done in our homes without any special props or expense. As mothers and fathers, are we aware of it? What color are the clothes they wear? Are their clothes soft or shapes (circle, triangle, square, rectangle, and hexagon). You can also make your own block set and have your child paint all the same shapes the same color. Maybe daddy could help out by cutting them out of wood. Paper and felt can also be used very satisfactorialy. Using the patterns that you can make yourself is a fun and a creative way in which to work with your child. Let them help plan. In the next few weeks we will be talking about how to teach children at home in some fun and creative ways and they are really very easy. Youll have such fun being with and learning with your special little child.
