The other day I drew inspiration from 1 of the new books we recently got, "Hands Are Not For Hitting". Even if your kiddo doesn't have problems with hitting, this is a wonderful book for all kids to experience!
We started off by all looking at our hands (counting our fingers, looking at the different sizes & colors of all of our hands). We then talked about what are hands are good for. They came up with some pretty creative answers for sure. After, I asked them if we should ever use are hands to hurt someone? Of course they gave me an enthusiastic "No!" (so cute) & then we went on to read the story.
After reading, we decided to do some positive activities with our hands. We used a stamp pad to decorate bookmarks, we colored some princess pictures, we made a pie, played with Duplos, did some puzzles, & we made our hand prints in clay & painted them (this took place over 2 days btw lol). SO FUN & so easy to do.
Books are another great place to draw inspiration from or even parent magazines ("Parents Magazine" is my absolute FAVORITE!).
Well, good luck & please shoot me an email or message me on FB if you find anything!
