LA SEÑORA CAJA
Objetivo:
Colocar los juguetes de vuelta a la caja después de usarlos.
Materiales:
- Caja de cartón
- Juguetes
- Marcadores
- Material de decoración
Experiencia de aprendizaje:
Es importante que determines horas y espacio de juego para tu peque y para esto vamos a crear una caja especial para guardar sus juguetes, “La Señora Caja”.
Invita a tu peque a crear una caja especial, siéntense juntos en el suelo con todos los materiales para decorar y dile que esa es su caja y la puede decorar como quiera, la van a nombrar “La Señora Caja”. Cuándo la caja esté lista y decorda, pídele a tu peque escoja los juguetes que quiere guardar en ella, y juntos pueden irlos a traer y colocarlos dentro. Lléva luego la caja a una habitación en la que pueda jugar con los juguetes. Invita a tu peque a jugar juntos. Al terminar de jugar vas a apoyar a tu peque explicándole que debe guardar las cosas en la “Señora Caja” al terminar de usarlos y van a ir repitiendo la siguiente frase
“A guardar, a guardar cada cosa en su lugar”.
Al momento de guardar las cosas tu peque asociará la canción con colocar sus juguetes donde pertenecen después de usarlos dentro de la señora caja de juguetes. Repite todos los días para hacer de este un hábito.
Esta actividad busca desarrollar en tu peque el orden de las cosas, el seguimiento de instrucciones y su independencia.

Painting buddy
Objective:
Follow instructions and wait for one´s turn while having fun painting.
Materials:
- Paint
- Painting brush
- Crayons or markers
- Drawing paper and easel or marker boards or clipboards
Learning experience:
Set two large pieces of paper side by side on a table or clip them next to each other on a large easel. Tell your little one that he is the leader and instruct him to paint a picture, one step at a time. You or another partner are going to follow the leader, painting the exact same shapes and lines in the same places on your paper. Set a timer for a few minutes to indicate when that partner’s turn is over and then switch. If you think your child needs to see first how the activity is done, you may be the leader first.
A little twist: (1) Draw more complex pictures or put several simple shapes together to make a picture (e.g. a sailboat, a sun, a car). (2) Take the visual cue out of the equation and allow the leader to cue his partner verbally for what to paint next.
Activities like this help your little one work on self-control, control his behavior, follow instructions, as well as paying attention, major components of the functional skills.
