Let your child guide you in the kitchen. What sounds good? It might be a little cocoa, a little sugar, a little flour. Have fun with one of your favorite recipes and let your child make it his or her own.
Help your child paint his or her hand, foot, or both with NON-TOXIC paint. Assist them as they make impressions. Enjoy the results of their work! Display them proudly!
Math is all around us. Add and subtract. Give your child fictional story problems (e.g., "Joey had five pieces of candy. He gave three away to his friends. How many does he have left?") and have your child give you a few to solve. Use paper to do the math.
Go back and forth mimicking animals with your child. Try to guess which animals you are mimicking. Walk like a penguin!
Visit your local library with your child and check out some bossa nova music. Discuss its origin and have a dance party in your home!
