Coloured Jars!!

We have all been there...the felt tip check day!! What are you going to do with the dried felt tips??

Here is an amazing idea I came across months ago but didn't try out til now..

YOU WILL NEED:

Empty baby jars or any jar with a lid

dried felt tips

hot water

perhaps a hammer to take out the dried ink

1) Bash the felt tip to extract the ink and put it into a baby jar and add hot water.

2) Add the lid and shake and leave on the windowsill..

very pretty!

Try with two different colours...

This is red and blue..which looks green...

...and purple when held to the light Subhaan Allah!!

Handling creepy animals...

We had the oppurtunity to handle a snake, a gecko and a tarantula...

Chemical molecule structures

My mother in law bought these when she was studying engineering many years ago and gave them to her son to play with when he was a child. I thought it would be a good idea also to start when they are young...

Number recognition and counting.

Subhan Allah! It is amazing what ideas come to you whilst breastfeeding...

1. Have numbercards ready from 0 - 9. (We have these blue tacked on the disused fireplace)

2. Ask your child to bring them in any order as follows..

   "Can you find number 3?" Once they identify number 3, "Put number 3 on the baby chair"

3. Once the numbers are all distributed, the child can recall where they put them. "Can you find the numbers? What number is it?"

4. Put the number on the floor and collect ? Number of house items.

Take pictures and produce a book!!

Zaki travels to London

Zaki travels to London

We called a mini - bus,

We weren't acting like a wuss,

I took a train to Manchester Victoria,

Of course, there's something boringer!

There's a metrolink to Piccadilly,

This is nothing to do with Billy,

Now, it is a third train,

It's cloudy nor foggy nor rain.

Science - Lava eruption

My sons attempted lava eruption... aaaaaah, did u see how much oil they used??

CRAZY, hey it worked!!

They used water with red food colouring with lots of oil (Hmmm, I did tell them to use the used oil from the wok, but never mind that's life!). In they popped a Vitamin C effervescent tablet!!

Cool Huh?
