@leapintolearningvp: Friendship bracelets are the perfect to do with preschoolers before school starts. Items Needed: 1️⃣Yarn or string 2️⃣Beads (optional) 3️⃣Tape 👯Cut 3 pieces equal length pieces of your yarn or string 👯Tie a knot at the top of the strings and tape them down to a hold them in place 👯Start braiding your strings. Then every so often tie a knot in the string at the end of the braid, add a bead, and tie another knot after the bead. 👯Continue braiding the strings and adding beads as you’d like 👯Once you’re done with the braiding tie a knot at the end of the string and then put the bracelet on This is great fine motor activity for preschoolers. Braiding the strings also requires hand eye coordination which are both important for writing and reading. The bracelets can also serve as a comfort item for preschoolers when school starts. They can have one and you can keep the other one, so if they become nervous they can look and the bracelet for comfort. 🙌 #kidsactivites #childhooddevelopment #kindergartenworksheets #keepthembusy #schoolreadiness #prekindergarten #childrenactivities #preschoolfun #earlychild development #preschools #invitationtolearn #educationalactivities #learnthroughplay #activitiesforchildren #preschoolathome #learningcenter #littlelearners #toddlerclasses #preschoolart #classroomideas #learningathome #funlearning #teachingkids #earlylearning #kidsactivities #preschoolactivities #teachersfollowteachers #preschool
