Happy Chinese New Year !

GONG XI FA CAI

Cookie Crumbs Kindergarten wishes all our Chinese parents and students a very happy CHINESE NEW YEAR! Happy Holidays!

Chinese New Year or Spring Festival, the literal translation of the modern Chinese name. It is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays. It is sometimes called the "Lunar New Year" by English speakers. The festival traditionally begins on the first day of the first month (Chinese: 正月; pinyin: zhēng yuè) in the Chinese calendar and ends on the 15th; this day is called Lantern Festival. Chinese New Year's Eve is known as chú xī. It literally means "Year-pass Eve".(*info extracted from Wikipedia)

Arts & Crafts

Our kindergarten arts and crafts are designed with age-appropriateness and academic support in mind to help the children understand themes and how colors are used to express feelings and create a mood.

In addition, these arts and crafts help them to develop the motor skills and eye-hand coordination skills, color recognition, and patience, and many also encourage them to learn about holidays, math, seasons, literature, and even basic science. 



                                                               
Children will have a blast making and decorating the glittering star!

Fine Motor Skill Development

Children have a natural affinity for sand play. Sand play stimulates and develops children's fine motor and creative playing skills and promotes physical development. Large muscle skills develop as children dig, pour, sift, scoop, shape with moulds and clean up spills with brush and dustpan. It is great for sensory therapy. Eye-hand coordination and small muscle control improve as children to manipulate sand accessories.

Mathematical concepts can be developed during sand play with measuring spoons, cups, containers in a variety of sizes and shapes. Teachers can challenge children to count how many scoops it takes to fill in a container. Children can use mathematical term like more/less, many/few, empty/full, heavy/light. It is important that the sand play area remain free and child-centered so that children may generate their own play schemes imaginatively.

Developing Pincer Grip

Forming the fingers in just the right way to hold a pencil can be a challenge for some children with fine motor issues or poor muscle tone. Dr. Montessori recognized the need for the young child to build hand strength and to allow for the pincer grip to mature before offering the tool in an effort to prevent the student from developing poor and tiring form. Many of the materials in the Montessori classroom from Practical Life to Geography or designed in a way that promotes strengthening the hand and developing a proper pincer grip.

A child uses her thumb and index finger to hold and manipulate small objects. With a pincer grip, a child can easily twist dials, turn the pages of a book, fastening closures and open a zipper, use scissors and  crayons or pencils with precision.
