When you use words such
as ‘big’, ‘small’, ‘tall’, or ‘short’ you are introducing your children to
measurement.
Activity:
What you need: clothes that your children have outgrown. Ask your children to try them on. Clothes that don’t
fit them anymore can be donated to charity organisations. This is a fun
activity and you are also teaching your children how to help others in need.
“Thank you for helping
mummy try on clothes that don’t fit you anymore so we can give to the poor and
needy. We are going to take this box of clean clothes to The Salvation Army to
give to children who don’t have enough clothes to wear. Before we do that, can
you please try a few on to make sure they don’t fit you anymore?”
“This t-shirt is too
small for you. You have grown bigger.”
“This pair of pants is
so short on you. Oh you have grown so much taller.”
