Foam fireworks

I saw this post at No Time For Flash Cards  and had a ‘lightbulb moment”!

We’ve tried playing with shaving foam before but Eli didn’t like putting his fingers in it. This time I provided ‘tools’ (paint brushes spoons and things from his play kitchen) for him to use and he was much more interested.

Shaving foam is a great medium for early letter formation so we’ll definitely be doing this again.

 

Sorry I’ve been a bit neglectful of this blog lately, school’s out in a couple of weeks so things are going to get a bit more interesting around here!
