Colour Match Fish Activity

This is a great activity to practices many learning opportunities such as:

· fine motor control

· hand and eye coordination

· concentration and problem solving

· simple sorting and matching by colours

· early counting

Materials I need are fish crochet in different colours and matching cups.

The reflection on how the children interacted with this activity was wonderful. I have seen that every child enjoyed themselves while they are sorting the fish into the cups. Some of the children just like to hold the fish for themselves for a while before they put it in the cup.

Development area I am developing through this activity is to help children get to know colours and develop early counting skills. It is also teaches responsibility. Sorting and matching colours is simple to set up and will trigger any child’s curiosity to play and have fun.

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.
