My little experiment!

Identified and recruited a varied group of children aged 3 to 6 years, along with their willing parents, to take part in the study.

Defined Baseline Cognitive abilities of each participating child. Materials?

A4 size paper

Water colour dips – Red, Green and Blue

A tray or plate to place colour in

Clock to track time

Phone to record the observation in audio or video format

Folders to keep each child’s activity results

For 2 weeks!! A repetition count of activity per week is asked at the convenience of parents. What do you think can I observe?
