I don't mind it, my husband actually gets really into it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-home-projects#post-2459526 Fri, 12 Feb 2016 08:45:31 +0000 Mamaof2 2459526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No DCP has never sent home activities - they are all done at school </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-home-projects#post-2459207 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 22:41:39 +0000 Corduroy 2459207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Applesandbananas: No projects, thankfully. I love that my in home daycare doesn't ask us for anything. Sometimes they send home "homework" if LO is working on something when I pick her up and she just can't stop. It then becomes "homework" but we don't have to bring it back. DD takes it seriously though because she sees the older kids do homework. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-home-projects#post-2459177 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 22:16:06 +0000 Applesandbananas 2459177@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjazz: hahaha, my DH just watches from a distance, gasping dramatically every time the washable paint hits something other than the project lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-home-projects#post-2459145 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 22:02:36 +0000 mrsjazz 2459145@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Applesandbananas: My DH always wants to do more or try and direct LO/fix what she's doing and I always have to stop him and tell him to let her do her thing, it's not HIS project! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-home-projects#post-2459135 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 22:00:36 +0000 Applesandbananas 2459135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjazz: yeah, I think ours are family projects too. My contribution has been limiting the amount of paint that makes it on the walls, the floor, the dog, etc. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-home-projects#post-2459132 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 21:58:43 +0000 mrsjazz 2459132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our preschool calls them family projects that we are supposed to do together. Some look better than others depending on how much LO wants to do--but we all participate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-home-projects#post-2459122 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 21:55:59 +0000 Applesandbananas 2459122@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does your LO's daycare ever ask you to do projects at home? We're asked to decorate a Valentine's Day box for him to put his valentines in and similar stuff throughout the year. </p> <p>I always let LO decorate however he wants, with paint, markers, stickers, etc. and it always looks like a toddler did it lol. Last year, all th Valentine boxes were soooo nicely done, I felt a little embarrassed, but really, it's supposed to be LO doing it, right? </p> <p>I did the same kind of thing with his valentines. I bought cans of play doh and let him decorate them with heart stickers. I wrote from LO on them but let him stick them on and some are upside down and some have like eight stickers and some have one, but I wanted LO to do it!</p> <p>Do you let LO take the lead on daycare projects or do you "help"? </p>
