My youngest is nearly 18 months which has allowed more opportunities for activities together that benefit both development and connection than in the past! While Brier is at preschool three mornings a week we try and do an age appropriate activity for Eli. Eli is a mover and it’s easy to gear towards gross motor/fine motor skills with him. Now we need to give some attention to language development.

For this I select 3-5 objects we use often and place them in a bowl. We take them out, say its name, and use simple language that coordinates with the object. We have simple natural conversation. Often we gravitate towards one object longer than the rest. We did this activity for 10 minutes together, going through each object, before returning to the Playdoh for open play.

We are a very selective on when we let our oldest use technology with a goal to use it as a form of connection rather than distraction. One way we do that is a themed movie dinner. This is our second time doing a movie dinner and we let our son pick out the movie from the children’s section of the library. He chose Cars 2! So after our youngest was in bed we grabbed our themed snacks, some blankets, and went downstairs to pop in the movie!

We had snacks for each location. Brier’s favorite was the candy sushi for the race in Japan. We also had a charcuterie cup and butter Parmesan noodles for Italy, tea with tea bread for England, and blue raspberry poppi for “ocean water”.

While the effort of being on a theme was not appreciated by a 4 year old, (shocker I know😂) it was something he genuinely was so excited for and enjoyed. A movie itself would have been great enough for him, but coming up with coordinating snacks is something I genuinely enjoy! I get to be creative and it keeps me accountable in being intentional with the evenings we do plan for a movie. I once heard the quote, “Their childhood is my motherhood, and I’m choosing to make it special for the both of us.” And one day, I hope it is something that was memorable to all and we look back on fondly!

Clearing out the old sensory base to make room for a new one!

I would love to update you all on the new mix we have for sensory play Friday. But at the rate this “clean up” is going, I may not get things put together until the kids are in bed. I love that my business is something my kids not only get to use, but LOVE to play with time and time again! It’s not always easy to let them make the mess. It can slow down my plans to involve them in the process. But they are the heart behind all of what we do here and I try to keep that in focus! So with that said, stay tuned for Friday’s sensory plans at Stones Coffee and Play!
