March

Our theme for the month of March is FOOD!!

 

 

The kiddos can walk around our very own grocery store pushing a shopping cart or carrying a basket to pick out what ever food they want. They can take turns pretending to be a customer or a cashier.

 

There is also a  Tim Horton's drive through!! One of my favorite's!!! Building on role playing skills and turning taking.

 

Children can make a pizza by choosing from a variety of toppings. Like all of our play centers there are many skills that can be targeting when playing this game including: turn taking, requesting, rejecting, matching, numeracy, shapes, colors, prepositions, letter identification, sound letter correspondence, etc.  

 

There is a Fruit Toss game where the children can feed the old lady, match the same food, or match by color.

 

Feed the Monkey

Children can feed the monkey and learn about the different food groups.

 

Take a seat in the comfy bean bag chair a choose a food themed book!

 

Craft Corner

We have a variety of food themed crafts prepared and ready to be made a hung up.

 

Anyone in the mood for McDonald's?1? Come and play.

 

 We have a bakery set up with lots of bakery toys a games to target a variety of skills.

  

Our tactile bin is set up as a vegetable garden! The children can play with rice "dirt" and pretend to plant a garden or pick the veggies when they're ready to be pulled. The print out on the right hand side is a topic board available to build on communication skills.
