Busy Mama, Busy Manha!

One thing that really annoys me, is to make her sit  in front of a black screen in the name of entertainment - just to make occupied while i am doing household chores!! Despite of providing her Islamic version of cartoons or educational stuff  ..but still, it bothers me a lot!

So I tried to involved her in some activities which she can do herself or when simply my eye on her works! :) Little bit successful in it but more effort needed as children easily get bored ...they need variety!

• Painting!!

Brushing on a magic coloring book!

• Building blocks

• Tracing shapes.

Scribbling.

• Stamping.

Body Parts!!

Our very first lessons in the world of learning!! When she was one, i helped her to explore her body parts - one of our favorite teaching topic!! She enjoys it a lot!! Have made so many videos of her on this!

Now she points body parts of her dolls, toys and  points it out on human and animal images!
It really helps in communicating  if child  is able to identify her body parts at early age!

Manha's Corner!!

Time to explore but mummies hearts are not BIG enough to gave them all space which a child terribly want!!

 At least i don't have one, cleanliness is also important for me!! But at the same time ..i want her to explore, to play ,to have fun!! So, i made a corner in my room, which is her property!! She can do anything there..play, sleep, read, jump, create mess with her toy as she wants but oh yes..no scribbling - for that she has wipe and clean board!!

She loves to have her own space, where she sit on her sofa read and play!! She also invites us to her corner by saying in a very sweet tone "SIT DOWN" and "BHAITOW" - in urdu!! I am also trying to make her habit to clean her space by herself!

In future will surely make her corner more creative and colorful!!

I think, we should provide kids some space inside or outside home where they can enjoy and explore things with their fullest extent without any restrictions, rules and regulations!! After all they are children! :)
