Winter Holiday Work for the Little Guy

I've applied my two point philosophy for my children's Dharma Class to Atticus' preschool work:  

1. Keep it simple.
2. Use what you have.

So pulling out the Christmas and Solstice boxes from the basement provided some easy, new projects to keep him busy while I'm homeschooling his older brother.

Here's a few of the activities that held his attention for a while:


Christmas Tree Bulbs
Sorted by Size


Christmas Tag Matching
I've had these vintage tags for years.

Snowflake Counting
These stickers came in the mail with an advertisement.

Sorting Holiday Bows by Color
(He used the wrong mat for this work,
but he was so engaged, I just let him roll with it.)

Felt Solstice Tree Decorating
It's just felt scraps on sandpaper.

Snap! I was thinking the same thing yesterday...keep it simple and use what you have. It makes a great home school motto.
