Soft toy (Ball crochet)

 


I made the ball from yarn by crocheting them. We can use it to play throwing ball with young children.

Throw ball is a great and easy to play games for all age groups. Through this activity, we not only learn how to throw a ball but also show them how to catch it. Ball play can help children to develop hand-eye coordination and attention.

The area I am developing through this activity is to help them to build balance skills and allow them to practice transferring an object from one hand to the other. It also can develop their social skills, such as learning how to share, how to follow rules, and how to take turns.

Naming Objects Activity

  I made this activity by crochet the object and sew them in the cardboard.  Through object play, children are learning about how the world works through trial and error, and develop their problem-solving skills. They also learn about the shapes, colours, and different objects in their environment.  The area I am developing through this activity is to supports children's cognitive growth, motor skills, problem solving skills, and social interaction.     EYLF Learning Outcomes: 4.3 Children transfer and adapt what they have learned from one context to another   National Quality Standard 4.1.1 – The organisation of educators across the service support children’s learning and development Theorist link Maria Montessori – She believed that play and learning was important in a child’s natural development   Principles and Practices Responsiveness to children
