The weather! Every day we deal with it and it affects us.
It is obvious that we focus the children's attention on observing the weather. We present a selection of "weather symbols" that children can choose and combine. Just try out the weather basket, the weather boxes and the weather stones.
Idea 1: Weather basket
I sewed them and put them in a basket.
The sewn parts are:
Sun
blue cloud
White cloud
Storm cloud
Raindrops
Snowflake
Fog
(White chiffon cloth)
Wind
(windwheels)
Weather bags
Idea 2: Weather maps
Paint/paint pictures yourself and laminate them!
Templates:
Cloud
Sun
Storm cloud
Wind
Rain
Snow
Fog
Cover for the box.
Find a box for your cards, then you can take out the weather box every day.
Idea 3: Weatherstones
You paint smooth stones with the weather symbols!
See template:
Paint pattern on one stone each.
... paint them still colorful!
When the children are older, they certainly want to paint the symbols themselves on the stones!
You can also take the template as a suggestion.
Before wash off the stones and let them dry well. Otherwise, no paint will last!
Paints the outlines with a waterproof pen
With crayons, they become real "lightstones" when they are painted
Put the weather stones in a box lined with felt.
Or keep it in a bag.
For example, you can place the daily weather selection on a tree disk and change it during the day depending on the weather change.
