Draw a grid for the month and ask your child to keep track of the weather with a symbol. Weather Watch: Create a chart to track the weather.Try to guess how the characters you see are feeling and explain what clues made you think people were happy, sad or mad. Find the Feeling: Mute a show you are viewing and watch with your child.Make a pile of all the socks while folding laundry, have your child set the table or ask them to put toys of different types on different shelves when they are picking up (e.g., trucks go on this shelf and dolls go on this one). What Goes Where: Use everyday chores to teach kids to sort and organize.Instead of giving the answer, try hesitating and then flipping the question to ask your child what they think. Flip the Question: Children are especially curious at age three and ask “why” – a lot.Talk with your child about how each house has a number, and how their house or apartment is one of a series, each with its own number. Where I Live: Begin teaching your child your home address and phone number.Tell the child to “jump on the circle” and “hop on a blue shape.” Shape Jumper: Use scissors to cut out different shapes from construction paper.We put our knowledge of childhood development to work and created a list of easy activities to do with kids age three to five. Many parents have their kids at home right now and might be searching for ways to keep them engaged and entertained. From engagement ideas and using everyday moments as learning activities to ways to spark language and learning skills, we provide information that helps ensure all kids get a strong start. We provide tools and resources that teach parents and caregivers facts and best practices for different ages and stages of a young child’s life.
