Bees Wax is a great option, even for the really young child, because its all-natural, it doesnt get hard when exposed to air, and it smells like honey when worked on. The children use their hands to create shapes, and use other tools such as knives, rolling pins, cookie cutters to learn things like cutting and baking. Many of these home school materials can be found in your kitchen. Dress-up clothes and costumes is a fun way to encourage your children to use their imagination. Dressing up in costumes motivates your child to make up stories and pretend play. The younger children can learn how to clothe themselves in this manner, and the older children can learn how to put pieces together to complete an outfit. These home school materials can be found in your closet, attics or vintage stores! All arts and crafts material is a must in any learning environment. Different colored papers, crayons, glue, glitter, ribbons, stickers and more allow children to explore their artistic and creative side.
