I was asked by Noah of
The People Garden to drum up some activities that promote pro-social sharing and negotiation skills for young children. I wanted to share this article so you could see the ideas as well. You will have to scroll down just a bit (past the very nice comments about me:) to see the activities.
There were four activities in all including...
#1 Sensory Play: Pepperoni Pizzas
#2 Music and Movement: Circle of Friends
#3 Creative Arts - Creating a rainbow
#4 Setting the Table
I really like how the children have to brainstorm ideas and propose the solutions. Such fun and creative ideas. It has been a joy to stop by your blog again.
ReplyDeleteThese are all great ideas and Noah really does a great job of filling it out as a post.
ReplyDeleteI love working on problem solving with groups of children -- it's really why I teach preschool. They are capable of doing so much, especially if they work together. One of my mantras is, "Together we're a genius."
Thank you Elise for stopping by:) You are always so sweet!
ReplyDeleteTom - I love that mantra! I will borrow it:)
Love that mantra, too, Tom!
ReplyDeleteI's so glad we can get such great ideas like these!
Great job, Noah!
