Tot School

I have to remember to take more picture of what we do during the week but I often get so swept up in what we’re doing that I forget. I managed to remember for a couple of our activities.

I made a slightly modified house game from Hubbard’s Cupboard September for 2’s, which he really, really had fun with.

He took it quite seriously.

This awesome wooden cup thing was a thrift store find. My husband said he could see the Montessori light flashing on and off on the top of my head the moment I found it.

Counting and number writing practice.

Cutting practice.

We read Princess and the Pea, then decided to try to see how many pieces of fabric we could feel a dried pea through.

It took quite a few folds. Those little suckers are hard!

Sticking with the Princess and the Pea theme, we glued dried peas to a capital P on a pink piece of paper. I’m all about alliteration.

Let’s ignore the raging mess behind him and look at how cool his P is!

With some assistance, he wrote his name. Some assistance being that I placed his hand in the right place and he did the shapes entirely himself. :)

Jess. That is SOOO awesome!! You are such a good Momma, seriously. I would love to connect with you or get an email with the things you do with Ben (or maybe a YYM topic) because I LOVE them. I need to do more of this. P gets it at school, but of course I never get to do it with her. At home we do lots of just plain creativity, painting, etc… but I like this stuff too!
