Tips for Parents and Carers
This is a simple exercise cementing thoughtful, mindful memories of people within your kids’ life through the act of purposefully gathering objects that link them to people. Some objects might seem random, ask your kid/s to explain the connection and if it is the smell, the look or the feel of the object that leads them to the memory. If it is not possible to gather the ideal objects, you could have them draw it, and then put the folded piece of paper into the box, or to draw it onto the box itself.

Learning@Home resources are designed for parents and teachers to use with children in the home environment. They can be used as stand-alone activities or built into existing curriculum-aligned learning programs. Our Learning@Home series includes two types of resources. The first are fun and challenging real-world activities for all ages, the second are self-directed lessons for upper primary and secondary students. These lessons support independent learning in remote or school settings.
