Home Learning Toolkit - April Newsletter
Dear Home Learning Toolkit Participants,
April is here, bringing showers and flowers! Let's dive into some springtime activities to enjoy with your children.
​
Parenting Tip
Promote Curiosity: Encourage your children to ask questions about the world around them. Curiosity drives learning and discovery. Take time to explore their questions together.
​
Activities
-
Rainy Day Science: Create a mini weather station at home. Track daily weather patterns, measure rainfall, and learn about the water cycle. It's a hands-on way to understand meteorology.
​
-
Earth Day Projects: Celebrate Earth Day by making eco-friendly crafts. Create recycled art projects, plant trees, or clean up a local park. Teach your children the importance of caring for the environment.
​
-
Nature Journals: Start a nature journal where your children can document their observations of plants, animals, and weather. Encourage drawing, writing, and pressing flowers or leaves.
April is named after the Latin word "aperire," which means "to open." This refers to the opening or blossoming of flowers and trees during the month.
