Clip counting offers a tactile experience that is hard for young children to resist (It is true because as soon as Abdullah saw those clips on his table, he said that he wanted to play with it :) ). By leaving the materials out on a table or shelf, children, who are naturally curious, will want to engage with the project.. This experience is great for developing number recognition, one-to-one correspondence, and knowledge of chronological order. Taking on and off the small clips is also wonderful for strengthening fine motor skills.
All you need for this activity is a set of number cards from 0-9, small wooden or plasctic clips and a number line (it helps with the chronological order).
Later in the afternoon, we made a science project. He discovered things that float and things that sink. I made a chart and gathered a few common items around the house.
I asked him to guess first, it's like making a hypothesis. And so, he came up with a conclusion that heavy things will sink and the light things will float.
While Abdullah was doing school, Umamah was flipping some books! :)
In the evening we strolled around the lake of Putrajaya. There was a swimming pool there in the club. Abdullah was so upset with the fact that we didn't bring some extra clothes!
Alhamdulillah for a wonderful day.
