Who Lives in Your House

When I taught preschool this was one of my favorite activities to do with the kids.  It is a great way to see how they see their families.  I was so curious to see how my kids saw our family.

I cut a house out of construction paper~you could even draw a house on a piece of paper.  There should just be something that looks like a house so that it is concrete for them.  Then I asked both of them to draw our family~The people that live in our house.

Here is Aiden's House~He said a Hippo lives in his house.  I didn't dare ask who the Hippo was in fear of his answer :)

Samantha's house is hilarious!  I think that it perfectly depicts our family.  We are always together~We are always right next to each other~I feel like we are all on top of each other and it looks like she feels the same way.

Try this with your kids~It's fun to see how they see things!
