we use mirrors from the dollar store they are large squares and fun to draw on with markers.

[@Teaching2and3YearOlds]

I need to look for those. Thank you for letting us know! 😊

GREAT IDEAS, as always!!!! How do you make sure each one of the children get to visit the center?

You can make a stencil out of a foam board or thick cardboard. I like to make my own especially for holidays.

I own a home childcare and these are some great ideas, especially the finger crayons! Thanks for sharing!

[@Teaching2and3YearOlds]

The finger crayons are so much fun. Thanks for watching!

Do you put out whiteboards and regular markers at the same time? If so, how do you separate so kids don't use regular markers on the whiteboards?

[@Teaching2and3YearOlds]

It would be easiest to keep them separated. So if you have a white board activity, you don’t put paper and markers out. Or you put them in a separate spot, perhaps as a table activity.
