"I Spy" is a great activity for children of a variety of ages, here are some ideas of things to find!
A Raspberry ( how many can you count)
A Tomato ( what shape is a tomatoe)
A Cantaloupe ( What do you think is in the middle)
A watermelon slice with 5 seeds ( can you find 2 slices)
Get close to the mural, point and describe pieces to your baby.
Play peek a boo!
Ask your child to go to the mural and point to the strawberry, continue with differnet fruits.
Point out the bees to your toddler, help them make the sound a bee makes and act like a bee around the fountain.
Have your child tell you which fruits from the mural contain circles. Can you think of other foods that are circles?
Show the child the Bees in the mural, teach them the song "Bringing home a baby bumble bee song". If you do not know the song, play a video to teach you both!
Count the number of blueberries. Can you do that many jumping jacks? Continue with other fruits and exercises.
