Learning Activities!
Its good to provide a learning time for the children...

I believe its good for the children to have a time to sit down and have a
learning time.  

I try to have a weekly theme, such as, shapes, colors, letters, numbers,
and identifying their names.  I also have crafts that they enjoy doing and
we also learn how to cut with scissors.  We learn how to use a pencil
properly as well as coloring and painting, etc.  There's also a time in the
morning after snack, which I call, "story time," and I read a few of their
favorite books.  The children also enjoy visual aides such as, Flannel
board stories, and puppets!  I enjoy using that method of story telling.  
"Red says Stop" is one of their favorites.  The sound of music and
movement brings  great enjoyment to toddlers and infants, I enjoy putting
Disney songs, and we have a wonderful time together!!

These are couple of their favorite books....
"The Very Hungry Caterpillar"
"The Rainbow Fish"
These girls absolutely love
coloring time!!
