Indoors doesn't mean dull

Hi everyone!!
I know, it's been a long time...I guess working in summer is not so easy!! Anyway, I'll try to keep up!

Summer is a great moment to take your kids outside and play (at the beach, in the park). But, oddly enough, it isn't always a good idea. Sometimes the heat prevents you from going out and you must entertain your kiddies at home. Does it mean you're reduced to crafts and board games? Not at all. There are lots of funny things we can do indoors.

Here's an example. What about a game of hopscotch? If you can make do with some flashcards, it's a great way to revise vocabulary and simple structures. You can put a flashcard in every square of the hopscotch grid. Kids toss their markers, and they have to make a sentences including the word their markers fell onto. If course, they have to hop through the course and get the card, just as in a normal hopscotch game.

As you can't draw the hopscotch grid on the floor if you are indoors, you can try with those foamy big puzzles babies use to learn numbers and letters. 

We tried today at the academy and we had lots of fun. So, why don't you try at home!!

Enjoy it a lot!!
