At the block center with our pets

In the picture above, children are playing in the block center, and they have their pets too. The

purpose of this block center activity is to explain to the children on the importance of taking

good care of their pets. Furthermore, it gives them an opportunity to interact with each other and

share their experiences and ideas on what fun activities they do with their pets at home.

Creativity is also enhanced in such stage for the 4-year-olds.

Addition
EDUCATION 2

The block center has managed to use recycled materials in coming up with something that can be

used during the math lesson. The idea is about creativity and at the same time instilling in

children the aspect of the addition and having fun handling mathematical problems. The concept

is best suited for children between 4 and 5 because they are aware of what addition entails. The

concept also fosters aspects of working together and sharing responsibilities and tasks.

Fun Tape Activities

The hands on as we grow ideas is all about what a child can do with lines of tape. This activity is

preferably for the 5 year old children because they can be able to do line estimates. The child

blows the pom poms using a straw, and it is a fun activity intended to have a child rejuvenated

and relaxed. In addition, the purpose of this activity is to encourage the child to concentrate when

doing something in order to get good results at the end of the activity.

River Rocks, Leaves, Flowers

Creativity in children is something encouraged and for 4-year-olds, they managed to use the

above block center in making different things. For example, some decided to make pieces of

chocolate from the rocks and were in a chocolate factory.

EDUCATION 3

The purpose here is to show children that they can be creative anywhere and with whatever they

have and come up with something admirable. They are, therefore, used for creative moments and

as decorations because they are open-ended materials.

Nature Inspires Play

In this block center, the purpose is to allow students between ages 3 and 5 to explore nature

through discovery and creativity. This activity enables children to be creative and imagine of

things they have seen through watching cartoons and other animation films. Through this,

children are able to work together and solve existing problems that may arise during their play

time.
