Feb 2014 Week 4 (24th Feb - 2nd March)
Assalamualaikum and good day u ols.
Sorry for lack of updates. Been busy lately :D.
Anyway, i would like to update on our homeschool activity. I have stopped the proper activity for quite some time. Blame me! Few weeks before i continued the letter Ee, i did repeat the previous letters to see my son's progress. So far, he already knew the letters. Alhamdulillah :)
Note again: This is a very long post!
Letter of the Week = Ee
Object of the Week = Egg
Vocabulary Development Theme of the Week = Pets
Bought the eggs online :)
As usual, doing worksheets from 1+1+1=1 for letter Ee.
This time, i did not prepare any Tot Trays properly. But we did Tot Trays activities by the way. This Eggs has shapes inside! Very interesting!
Then, we did shape sorting using the blocks and shape sheet.
We did wooden alphabet activity. This is awesome! My son was soooo into this activity everyday!
This wooden numbers as well. He loves this soooo much!
Every night, we will do Baby Qhaleefah reading via laptop. Alhamdulillah he loves reading too. We did phonics as well using Fridge Words from Leap Frog. But still he was not focusing on the phonics.
I will try to continue doing activities with my son.
Enjoice~~

Nov 2013 Week 4 (25 Nov - 30 Nov)
By this time, we are already in Bandung for hubby's company trip. I had scheduled my post for today and this week we wont be having our activity. Have to postpone next week if i have enough energy and time to prepare because we will coming back on late Saturday.
This week, we continued with letter Dd. I have changed the printables using different source. I referred from this blog: 3Dinosaurs. Other than that, i also referred to thig blog: Little Tiger Growing Up for the sensory bin/box/tub inspiration.
Note: This is a quite long post!
3. miniature trees which i took from my mom's and the salad became a tree
4. a green cloth which look like i dont know how to describe but quite rough for the sensory part
5. square and rectangular pieces foam and plain papers and a few of rocks
Note:
- Make sure items are not too small to prevent choking
This is for sensory development which teaches rough & smooth, big & small, heavy& light, and some fun!!
After that, we continued with Dot the Letter. Since we still do not have the proper dot marker, we used stickers instead! We showed how to stick the sticker on the dot to him. He followed after that. Ayser was very excited doing this activity. Every time he sticked, he would yeay after that. See his happy face.
This is the final outcome after he sticked. He did 2 sets of letter. Oh by the way, my fren also did this activity to her children.
This time, tracing the shapes. Quite challenging for him and he just scribbled after we guided him.
Other than that, we also did our reading session, puzzles, lacing activity but i did not take any pictures. For the next letter, i'm not sure when we'll be doing it. Maybe this month we have to take a rest or if i manage to prepare next week we have time to do it because end of the month also we'll be out stationed.
Ok, we want to enjoy our Bandung Trip and entries for this week will be lesser. See whether we can get the internet connection.
Enjoice~~!!

Letter of the Week = Dd
Object of the Week = Dinosaur
Colour of the Week = Orange
Vocabulary Development Theme of the Week = Shapes
This time, i did not manage to snap a picture of letter Dd because i had no time to prepare them properly. I was quite busy packing and preparing for our Bandung trip.
For Tot Trays, i maintained as last week's Tot Trays. Ayser was very happy playing with all the items of all trays until he tore the sandpaper letters. I might re-do the sandpaper letters using cardstock material or might laminate them before glue the letters on the card.
For this week, i added new activity which is sensory bin/box/tub inspired by Little Tiger Growing Up . It consists of:
1. dinosaurs figurines
2. some green pom-poms with small bowl for transfering and some green pipe cleaners3. miniature trees which i took from my mom's and the salad became a tree
4. a green cloth which look like i dont know how to describe but quite rough for the sensory part
5. square and rectangular pieces foam and plain papers and a few of rocks
Note:
- Make sure items are not too small to prevent choking

When i prepared this tub, Ayser was watching me. He was very excited when the tub was ready. He played immediately and i didnt manage to snap pictures. He played and messing around the room with all the items. I'll be leaving this tub for quite some time until i have other ideas. Haha.
This time, my sister who is currently on semester break helped me with Aser's activities. The printables were different for the week. Ayser was doing tracing the lines. After that, he scribbled and scribbled.
Still continued with tracing the lines but this not a straight lines. Different angle. He still did not used to trace lines properly.
When he got bored, he asked to got off from his chair. Then, we continued with his favourite activity. Sorting shapes!
After that, we continued with Dot the Letter. Since we still do not have the proper dot marker, we used stickers instead! We showed how to stick the sticker on the dot to him. He followed after that. Ayser was very excited doing this activity. Every time he sticked, he would yeay after that. See his happy face.
This is the final outcome after he sticked. He did 2 sets of letter. Oh by the way, my fren also did this activity to her children.
Then, we continued with Dinosaurs stickers activity. I just took the numbering sheet asked him to stick on the paper.
This time, tracing the shapes. Quite challenging for him and he just scribbled after we guided him.
Other than that, we also did our reading session, puzzles, lacing activity but i did not take any pictures. For the next letter, i'm not sure when we'll be doing it.

DIY Buttoning Board & Zipping Board
Posted by ZuLaiShah in Baby School, DIY Project, Educational Toys, Homeschooling on Monday, December 02, 2013
Time flies so fast. It's already the last month of 2013! So many things this month. Tomorrow we'll be going for hubby's company trip to Bandung. We've have packed our bag already.
Oh by the way, my latest DIY project, i got the idea from Rock A Bye Butterfly. But, i modified and added some other things in my own version. This is one of the montessori method for practical life. Other than that, this activity helps for fine motor skills development.
Materials needed are:
1) Buttons
2) Zip
3) Velcro
4) Felt
5) Polystyrene board
6) Sewing kit
You can just sew the buttons on the felt and glue the felt on the polystyrene board while the other cloths or felt just cut according to shapes and cut in the middle to make the button hole. That simple. But, i asked my cousin's help to sew them properly so that the cloths will not tear later.

For the zip, you need to attach cloths together with the zip and sew it on the felt. For velcro, just sew on the felt and attach together. Finally, attach or glue on the polystyrene board for easy usage.
I made 2 different boards so that i have more activities and easy for my son to do his activity. So, this is the final product. The zip & velcro board. Ayser was very excited doing this activity.
And my buttoning board. You can do in different shapes and different sizes of buttons. Ayser also was very excited seeing this board but quite challenging for him to button back the cloth/felt.
Very very big thank you to my cousin, Ain for helping me to finish this DIY project. Else, it will take tons of days to finish it.
Happy Monday and happy DIY-ing!

Baby School: Cc Is For Cat!

Nov 2013 Week 3 (18 Nov - 24 Nov)
I'm still continuing with our weekly activity. For this week, i'm still referring and using printables and information from 1+1+1=1.
Note again: This is a very long post!
Letter of the Week = Cc
Object of the Week = Cat
Colour of the Week = Blue
Vocabulary Development Theme of the Week = Pets
This week's theme is pets but i dont have any of animal dolls that can be a pet. Maybe one or two only. The dog and cow (can consider as a pet rite?). Others were teddy bears. Never mind. Heplayed with the dolls btw. Haha.
For Tot Trays, these items were my DIY projects. From left is buttoning board activity. In the middle is sandpaper lowercase letters. And last one is zipping & velcro board. All the DIY projects i'll be blogging about them soon ya.
Ayser was so excited when he saw the two boards. He played with both of the boards. Zipping he managed to unzip and zipped back. For velcro, he managed to take out the side of the velcro but he still didnt know to put together back. For buttoning, this is quite challenging for him. So, i have to guide him to un-button and button back the cloths.
As for the sandpaper lowercase letters, he took the cards and read the letters for a while then he threw away or crumpled the card. I have to find the thicker paper for this kind of cards.
As usual, Ayser scribbled the sheet using Crayola Washable Marker in Blue.
His favourite part. Shape sorting! He managed to sort correctly! Again, i dont have the crescent/half moon shape :D.
He was still doesnt know how to draw a line from left to right. So, i had to trace together with him from left to right. He was not focus this time.
My sis just came back from Sydney for her semester break. So, i asked her to buy some washable markers there. This one is the stamp markers with different shapes. I took the half moon stamp marker and guided Ayser to stamp on the 'C' letters.
Sorting the card in sequence. He did for a few seconds only. Then he threw the cards away. Time to change the activity i think or maybe the printables.
This 3 pieces puzzle also he just sorted out for few seconds only with my guidance. Then, he didnt want to do anymore.
Seriously, i have to change the printables. These matching cards also he did for a few seconds and threw them away. Though he loves cat, but he disliked the cards! Haha. Maybe too much activities at the same time he was bored already.
Stamping the letter on the cat. He loved to do this but soooooo messy! Look at the stamp pad. He mixed the colors together. I wanna faint! At the end, i took it away coz already super messy. Even he stamped on the table.
This time, i left the coloring and numbering. :D Others i managed to finish. I was planning to continue letter 'C' to this week but changed my mind to proceed with letter 'D' this week. Other than this, we did Baby Khalifah series and reading as well.
Ok, for letter 'D', i have added one more activity which is sensory bin/box. Later will show you ok.
Till then, enjoice!

Baby School: Bb Is For Ball!
Posted by ZuLaiShah in Ayser Zarif, Baby School, Educational Toys, Homeschooling, Information/Knowledge, Learning/Development, Parenting Hood, ToddlerHood on Tuesday, November 19, 2013
Nov 2013 Week 2 (11 Nov - 17 Nov)
Salam and Good Day u ols.
For this week activity, i'm still referring and using printables and information from 1+1+1=1.
Note: This is a very long post!
Letter of the Week = Bb
Object of the Week = Ball
Colour of the Week = Green
Vocabulary Development Theme of the Week = Outdoor Fun
I gathered his balls put them together so he can play with the balls. This no big letter 'B'. I didnt bought it :D. For tot trays, i maintained the inserting coins only from previous week. Others, i changed to pouring from cup to cup and transfering from bowl to bowl.
He played all the tot trays and after that as usual messing time! He loves to throw the pom pom balls to us.
Reading with Tag Junior
For reading, we usually use this Tag Junior or i read books together with him. This time, we used Tag Junior for reading. First, i took the ABC flashcards and he uses the Tag device to point each card. After that, we read the books.
Here's his video reading using Tag Junior. I managed to capture this time. He didnt notice :D
Main Letter Sheet
I guided him to trace letter B using Crayola Washable Marker in Green.
His video doodling the Main Letter Sheet.
Find the Balls Sheet
This sheet also i guided him to find from one ball to another ball to make 'B' letter. After that, he scribbled the sheet.
Dot Paint the Balls Sheet
Since we still dont have the Do-A-Dot Marker type, we used the same method as the above to make him familiar with this kind of activity though he still did not understand. I think i will repeat all over again when we finish all 26 letters.
What Starts with Bb? Sheet
For this sheet, he managed to tell me all the objects in the paper and scribbled at the same time.
His video scribbling and doodling.
Dot Paint the Letter Sheet
We circled the letters together since first dont have the needed marker and second he still did not know how to circle the letters. Never mind baby. Practice makes perfect!
Stamp the Letter Sheet
We used Melissa & Doug letter stamper for this activity. Still needed me to guide him to stamp properly.
Tot Tray Activity: Inserting Coins
This activity, he's an expert! We just take out the coins and he inserted himself one by one until finish. And he repeated few times.
Number 1-10 Sheet
This time, i use the wooden numbers for him to recognize numbers. Currently, he managed to pronounce number from 1 to 10 perfectly but he did not really know the shape of the numbers. So, i had to guide him one by one. But, he managed to put correctly! Smart boy!
This time, he took the sheet himself and showed to me he wanted to do shapes. I still missing one shape. He was very interested to play with. He put the shape according to the shape in the sheet correctly. He did this activity many times. He loved it so much.
Connect the Apples Sheet
Vocabulary Development sheet
I only said out loud to hime the objects and he scribbled the objects. I think have to change the way of this activity. Any idea?
Lacing the Ball
3-piece Ball Puzzle
Sequencing card
This one, i had to trace together with him from left to right. And he managed to trace back correctly this time though not really a straight line.
Vocabulary Development sheet
I only said out loud to hime the objects and he scribbled the objects. I think have to change the way of this activity. Any idea?
Lacing the Ball
Again, i DIYed the lacing card. He was still not really interested in this activity. I guided him many times. He managed to lace the ball halfway and played the card himself. Never mind, try again next time.
3-piece Ball Puzzle
I showed him how to sort the puzzle. This time, he was not focus and became so playful. He did for a while, then he threw them away.
Sequencing card
Again, I did not cut the number separately. I showed him the numbers and sequence, then he repeated me.
Shadow Matching Cards
I put the shadow cards first and then i gave him the coloured cards to match with the shadows cards. I had to guide him then he scribbled the cards and the table.
Other activity we did was learning using Baby Khalifah Series. This time, i left Colored Balls Sheet only because i have a feeling that he's not ready yet for coloring.
Next will be letter Cc. Stay tune!
Enjoice!
