Hi there! I am recently a new nanny to 4 beautiful little girls!
Tatum is 5
Riley is 4
Kayla is 2 1/2
and Tenley is 1
I want to be able to do different arts and crafts things with the girls, but I don't always know what the family has on hand- such as empty egg cartons, paper plates, etc. I don't really have the money to go buy the supplies ALL the time, and I would feel a little funny asking the family to supply those things.
Here's the reason I ask: Our daily schedule includes a three hour block of play time. Each day we do something different. Monday is Arts and Crafts, Tuesday is Outside time (weather permitting), Wednesday is and Dancing, Thursday is Game day, and Friday is Outside (weather permitting) or Wild Card Day.
I have a ring for each of these days full of different things to do. Each day we pick a card (or two) and do that activity. But, if we don't have the supplies to do that activity, we have to think of something else- which can sometimes be disappointing to the girls.
Any suggestions would be helpful! Thanks bunches!
