Little Life Line
Engagement Time
20 Minutes
Little Lifeline is designed to improve your little one’s understanding of where they have come from and how they fit into your family.
Materials Required
Photos of your little one over the past few years String Pegs
Method
To begin this activity you will need to order the photos you have chronologically either from the newest to the oldest or the most recent to your little one's first photo. You can then peg the photos onto the line and let you and your little one see just how much they have developed since they were born. Extension: You may wish to draw a picture to go with some of the more memorable photos or place the photos into a photo album or scrap book to make a permanent time line for them to refer to as often as they wish.
