That said, I won't be posting a Mother's Day craft. You will not be working on your own on my watch.

This week I want you to just focus on enjoying your little ones. Go for a walk. Bake together. Make dinner. Watch a movie. Water the garden. Sit and play with them. And then make sure you take a moment for yourself. Happy Mother's day to all of our wonderful moms! You are doing an amazing job, and should be proud of the little ones you're raising!

And if the Dad's are reading this, and need a craft idea, feel free to reach out to me.]]> 2020-05-04 06:14:47 UTC https://padlet.com/UHprek/2leomfm3ttu15pjy/wish/548228663 Sensory bin with Oatmeal UHprek https://padlet.com/UHprek/2leomfm3ttu15pjy/wish/548255050 I really like this sensory bin with oatmeal as the base. Perfect if you're little one likes to eat things he shouldn't. You can use food coloring to dye it, or you can leave the oatmeal as is! Since we're focusing on animals this month. You could add animals or dinosaurs to the bin. Add in some small cups as scoopers, or spoons. You could even add in some water to some undyed oatmeal as well for a sensory table idea!]]> 2020-05-04 06:29:56 UTC https://padlet.com/UHprek/2leomfm3ttu15pjy/wish/548255050 San Diego Zoo UHprek https://padlet.com/UHprek/2leomfm3ttu15pjy/wish/548260741 Since we're focusing on Zoo animals this month, check out some live cams of different animals.

Using landmarks and visual spatial memory, wayfinding (or way-finding) encompasses all of the ways in which people orient themselves in physical space and navigate from place to place.

How does wayfinding develop in children (research)?
