Allowing him to use the ipad to direct a craft project or other activity really helps him feel like he is doing something on his own.
Today we were making a pumpkin craft and then painting. Junior told me what he needed next as he made his pumpkin. It is difficult to tell in some of the pictures what he is looking at, I was trying to hold the ipad and take pictures so it was a struggle to get a good angle so you can see whats going on.
His boards for todays activity.
Telling me that he needs the glue
And a paint brush
The pumpkin is now orange but whats missing?
Junior knows. It needs a face.
When we finished the pumpkin Junior was ready for another activity. We went to his arts and crafts board and he chose paint.
Junior loves all kinds of painting so there are many choices in this category.
He decided on marble painting.
His boards for marble painting
Choosing his first color, blue
Telling me to help him shake the bucket, that makes the marbles roll around on the paper.
He did several paintings so here is another of them
Junior,
ReplyDeleteI love seeing all the fun fall crafts you are working on, it seems like you're having a blast! I am planning to do some of your crafts this week with one of the kids I work with, I think he's going to have just as much as you. I also love how great you are doing with an IPAD, you're an inspiration!
There is a website with great IPAD accessories that you may want to share with Heidi. http://rjcooper.com/
Happy almost Halloween!
