Rainbow Telescopes


I made the telescopes from cardboard tubes/recycled paper towel roll and cellophane paper.

This activity will lead children to use the objects, actions & ideas to imitate situations while using their imaginations to designate roles.



The children smile while they see the other person from the telescope. Some babies use the telescopes as a shaker. Some take it as a throw and catch toy. The other hold it as a music instrument as they knock the paper towel roll to the floor.



Furthermore, it will challenge children to become more imaginative and creative. It helps them experiment with new ideas and make their own rules.

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

Matching Colour Activity

This is a fun  activity to practice 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 doughnut crochet that I made in different colours. The area I am developing through this activity is to help children get to know colours and develop early counting skills.    EYLF Learning Outcomes 4.2 – Children develop a range of skills and processes such as problem solving, inquiry, experimentation, hypothesising, researching, and investigating National Quality Standard 5.2.1 – Children are supported to collaborate, learn from, and help each other   Theorist Link Maria Montessori – She believed that play and learning was important in a child’s natural development   Principle and Practice Learning through play
