MySelf & My Family

Assalamu Alaikum

Still it's last year with $weety, We did Myself and My Family

For Myself first I made her look at the mirror and talked how Allah has created us beautiful. We then discussed the difference between her appearance and mine and how Allah is so powerful to make the differences although we have the same parts and that just made me say "Subhanallah what a perfection in his creation. And then set off to do something funny with her. I traced her!!!

$weety slept on a large paper and I outlined her with a pencil 

She got up and was excited, said 'ummi is that me, I'm in a paper" lol

Then she began to outline with a felt pen

Then she drew the parts of the face and measured her height and weight

She enjoyed drawing her face again on the whiteboard, cute ha!

Then the parts of the mouth, I drew the the lips and she drew the teeth and.....tongue

Then we did name practice, kept some wooden letters and wrote her name

Mashallah she did it and spelled the sounds too!!

And now Alhamdulillah she can write her name

And for My Family, we did a lot of talking and discussed the roles of the family members and their duties, and to thank Allah for giving us a beautiful family. I made some printables according to how she understood and the talk we had.

Pasting the pictures of the family

Matching with names 

Circling the appropriate dresses

And a lot more such as the work, things and the roles which I didn't take the shots, coz she needed my help and wanted to tell a story for each work. We read some books online related to the theme. I planned a lots of activities for her but did only what she wanted. Which was Alhamdulillah.

Last Year with $weety

Assalamu Alaikum

We did some activities last year when $weety was three and didn't get the time to post it, Thought to post one by one but the time's passing and I thought mustn't make it later than this so just posting the pics to remember the fun we enjoyed

• When she was curious about "Big and Small", This was the first activity we did, with the First Math activity book. 

Collected all the materials I could find and asked which was small and big?

At the end I asked out of all these things which is small? And Alhamdulillah she pointed to the small beads which was small.

• Sorting Shapes, Colors and Sizes

At the beginning she only sort half of a set and she's done.  Mashallah one day she did all the three sets.

• Sets 4 pieces of puzzles

When I bought it she couldn't set and began to put away in the box, later on she gave a try and Mashallah she did all four puzzles on her own.  

• Sorting small, medium and big

• Sorting my new pots with lids

It's shining ha!!

• Copies a model

The model was made by me and she quickly started to build and Mashallah still when she takes the blocks she builds the same model first and proudly show me "Ummi's house" (or should i say tower ;)

And also she builds some fascinating models too..which astonishes me, coz she didn't had slight interest in building blocks at first. Always she does is throw and calls me "trouble Ummi" when I take the blocks and start building MY OWN.

• $weety's first matching

Got the small cards from Almah's Journey and the big one from TJ's blog which is not working now.

• First time with the play dough

What did we make??!! .....mmmm.....i think its a...... it looks like a flower pot......aahh! yes a flower pot!!!

 Alhamdulillah for the time I spent with my precious one, Alhamdulillah to the one and only who makes my Children learn and grow in front of us And Alhamdulillah for giving us the.....happy.. awesome feeling by wathching them grow.
