How to :
- Request them to help you in wiping the table, wash the car, wipe the mirrors etc.
- After each wipe ask them to dip the sponge in the water and squeeze the water out.
- For the car wash, add little soap and I am sure they will enjoy!
- Ask them to help you in washing their socks, handkerchiefs etc while you are washing their uniform.
- Tip them with small gifts, story books or coins for their piggy banks, once they are done with helping and squeezing the sponge.
Other ideas
- Give them water colours, sponge and charts. Show them how to dip and use sponge to make pictures on the chart, like leaves of trees, water, sea, sky etc
- Ask them to imagine and do pictures of their own. Do not tell rules that you have to paint like this, let them use their own imagination.
Note: Many times children's imagintion is very wild. It may not match ours, as we think more towards reality. They may paint the leaves red, flowers blue. But try not to restrict their imagination.
