One simple craft is making a paper plate Santa. Cut out a circle from a paper plate for Santa's face. Let the toddler glue on cotton balls for his beard and draw on the eyes and nose. Another idea is to make a Christmas star out of popsicle sticks. The toddler can paint the sticks and then you can help them glue the sticks together to form a star. This can be related to the star in the Christmas story.
Once upon a time, on Christmas Eve, a little toddler named Timmy was very excited. He helped his mommy bake cookies for Santa. He used his tiny hands to roll the dough and cut out the shapes. That night, he left the cookies and a glass of milk by the fireplace. When he woke up in the morning, there were presents under the tree and the cookies were half - eaten. Timmy was overjoyed.
You should start with simple, colorful books and use a gentle and animated voice. Make the story interactive by asking them questions or having them point to things.
First, choose a short and simple version of the story. Then, act it out with toys or puppets to keep the toddlers interested. Use lots of expressions and sounds to make it exciting.
It's important because it boosts their imagination. Through stories, toddlers can envision different worlds and characters, expanding their creativity. Also, it's a great bonding time with parents or caregivers.
Well, start by picking a topic they're interested in. Like playing with toys or having a picnic. Then describe it in a way that's easy for them to understand. Add some rhymes or songs to make it more engaging.
The monkey is very smart. When he figures out that the crocodile is up to no good, he quickly devises a plan. He tells the crocodile about his heart being on the tree. The crocodile, being rather foolish in believing this, takes the monkey back. By doing this, the monkey not only escapes the crocodile's clutches but also makes the crocodile look rather silly. The monkey's ability to think on his feet and come up with such a believable lie is how he outwits the crocodile.
