Welcome back to the weekly curation roundup! We had a lovely mix of topics this week, I hope you'll enjoy the highlights!
There were almost no interactions in the community, but I I'll add @ingridontheroad as a beneficiary for her last great post who got missed for the curation.
Let's start with @ingridontheroad's well written post. She shared with us two fantastic articles lately and I have chosen to talk about this one: Teenage Years. If you have teenagers at home, maybe you've already rolled your eyes. 🙄
In her post, Ingrid discusses the importance of creating an engaging and supportive learning environment for children. She highlights the challenges and advantages of homeschooling teenagers, including dealing with modern issues such as social media influence, mental health, and peer pressure. But there's more on there to read so in case you missed her post, you can read it right now.
From teenagers, let's go to small kids, toddlers or preschoolers. @emmaris shared with us simple and fun educational activity designed to teach young children about the parts of a plant. She shows us all the materials she used, how to make this DIY flower model and she also mentions what are the educational benefits of the activity (such as improving concentration, observation, language skills, and strengthening parent-child bonds).
Another lovely idea to try it at home with the little ones comes from @nanyuris. She designed this learning patterns activity to enhance visual perception, color recognition, mental agility, and hand-eye coordination by using just recycled materials and nothing else. It's easy and practical and I would say it's fun too!
This week, @leomarylm shared with us how she's trying to create a positive and educational environment for her girls during school vacation. She is mostly focusing on keeping her two girls emotionally stable and engaged through fun and educational games, this time sharing with us a few math-based learning activities.
We've got a lovely post from @kingswill who talks about the importance of recognizing and encouraging children's artistic skills from a young age. He discusses in details how to nurture such skills by providing appropriate tools, encouraging regular practice, offering positive feedback, and creating a supportive environment.
Thank you for joining us. This curation was brought to you by @missdeli and this week I have added @canadian-coconut as 10% beneficiary for the ongoing delegation support. Thank you!
