Home education at its best - doll salon!

Elsa needed some serious TLC, so we hit YouTube, found some tutorials and got to work.

Anyone else struggle with keeping doll hair in a decent state?

We’re getting militant in our house at the moment! Rules have slipped thanks to Covid-Craziness, and now my house is a disorganised disaster!
.
.
I’ve given the kids “zones” to take care of. Getting a reward depends on whether or not their zones are tidy by the end of the day.

How else can I encourage my kids to stop wrecking my house?? 😂 Leave your tips below!

My little boy wrote a positive message for his mindset poster 🥰🥰
We had so many quotes to choose from, but in the end this is all he needed to say to himself.

I just played a very very random game of chess with Layla. We didn’t appear to have any rules but it all seemed to make sense for her and she found it extremely hilarious. Somehow she won. Go figure 🤷🏼‍♀️ 😂

How do you mix up maths to make it fun?
🖍
This is a throwback to when Layla and I decided to combine number recognition and artwork! If you’ve followed this account for a while, you’ll know my girl loves scribbling and colouring. So when number recognition became a little frustrating, we got her art book and had fun!

So, how do you mix up maths to make it fun? Tell me in the comments!

This photo right here is the ultimate child-led activity. After asking if she could “please do some writing?”, I gave Layla her notebook and pens and off she went to her room. She didn’t ask me to write anything for her to copy, she didn’t ask for a book - she just went on her way.
.
.
She then returned with this. She had independently tried to figure out various words and draw pictures to go with them. She then took my phone and proudly took a photo of her work.
.
.
Child-led writing, drawing and photography! Layla knows I like to take photos of her hard work, so she mimicked what she had learnt and took the photo herself!
.
.
Layla writes best when she is left to her own devices. What needs to happen for your child to enjoy writing?

Today, Layla’s activity from school involved equal sharing. We divided berries, Lego pieces, and pencils between her toys.
.
.
Once we’d finished and I was sending a video to her teacher, Layla continued to play with her toys and set up a picnic. She then proceeded to share out the dried berries in different ways and her imagination came to life as she laughed and chatted with her toys in a way she hadn’t done when I was hovering over her, instructing her every step of the way.
.
.
Most of the time, all children need is a little nudge, a little demonstration, and then they can run with it all by themselves!

#Poetry work with Khalid today. Poem reads:
🎁I will put in the box: Twinkling stars, A happy baby, A golden dragon.
.
🎁My box is fashioned from plastic and iron and kryptonite with electrical eels on the lid and jokes in the corners. It’s hinges are the claws of a panther.

Sometimes you have to use Superman and Black Panther to help them engage with #poetry and #writingtime!

Layla was practicing her writing on our whiteboard and decided she wanted to use a hand puppet and pretend he was the one writing.

We had a lot of fun deciding what her sheep might want to write 🥰

Ok, I need some advice! What do you do with all your kids’ artwork? When I first became a mother, I was determined to keep every single piece. .
Then I realised how naive that was 😂

Khalid gets into some of the craziest positions when he writes 😂 He’s never been a “sit at the table” kind of student. He loves the freedom to get comfortable with his pencil and notebook!

What are your thoughts? Should children be sat at a table when learning to write?

This was the #firsttime Layla wrote her name. She tried to copy it repeatedly for weeks and weeks, but she didn’t give up. She kept rubbing it out and trying again. When she finally did it, she was SO PROUD of herself and couldn’t stop smiling and talking about it all day 🥰🥰
The whiteboard in our spare room has been the most useful home education resource we have purchased so far.

This is my Abi and my youngest brother visiting Kashmir. Whilst I don’t share my brother’s biological links to Pakistan, I’m absolutely thrilled he got the chance to visit his family’s country. He had an AMAZING trip and loved every minute.
.
It’s so very important for multicultural children to visit the homeland of their parents and grandparents. Not only does it provide an incredible bonding experience (as seen in this photo! 💕) but it also awakens a part of the child that usually gets watered down by life in the west.
.
My own children are blessed to have links both in Jamaica and Zambia, and I pray we are given the opportunity to take them there one day.
.
For those of you with wondrous multicultural families, have you managed to take your children to visit their family’s country? Tell me all about it in the comments!
