Arctic Week
Welcome to Arctic Week
This week's theme is all about the arctic. Get your toddler to help rescue the frozen animals, make polar bear cards out of potato and do some arctic animals yoga.
Book and Rhyme of the Week
Introduce your toddler to new sounds with the Arctic Animals Sound Book. We love this series of books - Woodland Sounds was the first baby/toddler book we were given!
Sensory Play
This week's sensory play is pretty simple. Make some ice cubes and pop in plastic animals before freezing them. Get your toddler to break them out using warm water and tools.
Arts and Crafts
This week we are going to make potato stamp polar bears. Cut a potato in half and encourage your toddler to stamp with it. Draw ears and snowflakes with a paint brush or fingerprints. Add snow to the ground. When it's dry add eyes and a nose.
These are the washable paints and colourful card that we always end up rebuying on Amazon.
Active Play
Why don't you try some arctic animal yoga with your toddler? See how many of these animal shapes you can make!
