Kids’ Korner: The Angel of Science loves the number ‘one’



All of the activities posted each month on KidsReadUs.com reflect the dreams, hopes, and aspirations of children everywhere.

“Kids learn through the eyes of other kids,” explains C. J. Ellis, founder of the website. “That’s why it is important for parents and educators alike to resist temptations that discourage development of each child’s unique imagination and play activities.”

The holiday project created by Adrienne Rudolph for C. S. Mott Children’s Hospital involved art, science and discovery, as well as dramatic play. “Each child had a very special interest, ranging from basketball, to science, to becoming a nurse, to being a teacher, to wanting to cook or dance.”

The Angel of Science, created by Aaryn Fulton when he was 9 years old, captures the true spirit of the project. In this activity, which can be downloaded free, his angel tests your child's knowledge of words that contain "one."

The book Angels are Everywhere truly is an inspiration that encourages children of all ages to Let Their Imagination Fly!
