Tiny Tot School: Rainbow

Maddie is 15 months.

Sensory - Rainbow Sensory Bin


I filled this bin with poms of all sizes and several different rainbow objects - including cups and spoons for stirring, pouring, and mixing. Maddie LOVED this and easily spent 20 minutes each day exploring.

Sensory - Rainbow Loom Sensory Bottle


This was a total bust. I'm surprised I even got a picture of her with it, because she literally spent 10 seconds on it and then refused to touch it again.

Math - Transferring Poms


A regular activity, but a good one. Maddie EASILY completed this one this week - it's amazing to see how much she has improved since we started! This was no big deal to her... guess it's time to introduce spooning and other ways of transferring.

Fine Motor - Pipe Cleaners in a Strainer


Maddie couldn't figure out how to get the pipe cleaners into the strainer holes, but she sure loved taking them out and seeing how many she could scrunch together in one hand.

Gross Motor - Throwing Rainbow Bean Bags


This activity was her second favorite, after the sensory bin. I sewed some basic bean bags with rainbow fabric and put them in a basket. She LOVED throwing them out of the basket and putting them back in. She would repeat over and over again!
