Give a Gift, Show some Love Preschool-style

At the end of the year the boys’ Sunday School class was talking about giving to show love. All of the children in the class made something to give away to someone in our church or at home. Hubby and I were a little surprised that both boys were into this stringing activity. It seems like when we try some things at home they are so not into it, but when they are around others trying the same thing sounds exciting!

I know every child has probably strung beads or loop cereal onto a string, but it was pretty neat for us that even Sweet Pea was in on the action! With a little help from Hubby he did really well, even making some bracelets to give away without eating them!

Cutie Pie wanted to work mostly on his own. See the serious concentration in his eyes? He did really well, too, but wanted to get sugary cereal after this activity! I’m still actually considering it if it gets this fine motor practice happening at home!

Both boys gladly gave away bracelets they made, showing love to others, but still kept one for themselves! It was a good lesson, and very practical for the boys’ ages!
