Alphabet Scrap
Posted by: cheeqa on: April 19, 2007
Inspired by an idea of an ukhtee, I’ve made this project for my little ones. Except, instead of using magazine or newspaper picture, I printed pictures from internet. That way, I would not have to worry about that eyecatching material on the magazine or newspaper that will take the kids attention away.
Dian did all the scissor and the sticky work on the picture, except for the letters.
Alphabet Glitter

It is a fun way to get the kids learning alphabet. We did it just last night.
Just print a simple alphabet outline, or you can draw it yourself. Apply glue inside the letter, and at last spread glitter powder onto it. You can get it in most craft store. Kids love anything twinkling.
The First Serious Hour
Posted by: cheeqa on: April 17, 2007
Last night we had our first serious time. Dian spent long enough coloring 4 pages of her A book. While Agim only held on for 15 minutes or even less for that. I relize that I shouldn’t expect too much in our first lesson together. Eventhough, they both seems happy getting new book. I try to remade them based on coloring book on homeschooling.about.com, but with some changes on the content, regarding we speaks in Indonesian.
Tornado Experiment

I myself didn’t know at the beginning where did they get the idea. Lately, I found that they got the idea from a Blue’s Clues show. It shows us how the tornado works. By combine two plastic bottles on their neck, one of them was quarter-filled with water. Turn the bottles upside down and wa can say a water-taifun formed. Thank’s for such great idea Joe.
The Recycled Ships

This weekend we have no plan to go anywhere. Agim & Dian insist me to help them making a cruise ship from an ex ice cream box. Lucky we have two of them. They are enjoying playing them.
