Royal is 25.5 months

Naturally we haven’t done much in the way or tot school either.  Royal has really been enjoying our time outside, despite that the mosquitoes loves him.  Poor kid has a bite on each cheek and all over his legs.

He got a hold of the hose and got Baloo!

He was telling me that the red frog was wet.  I tried asking him for other colors after that and he got yellow and blue!

He really enjoyed the mudpit too!  I hid some of the frogs in there and let him find them.  He scooped the mud, made the frogs move around, and hid other things in there. 

I just love this picture…he looked so silly with the goggles on!

We started working a bit on out ocean theme.  He really enjoyed matching the pictures!

That was it for tot school these past 2 weeks.  For more tot school ideas check out 1+1+1=1!

Royal is 25 months

We had a really fun week with our Jake and the Neverland Pirates theme!  Royal wasn’t enthusiastic about it the entire week, but he did a lot!

You can download the Jake Tot Pack here!

He really loves playing with dry erase markers!  He did the Pp page a few times this week.

He didn’t start off dotting the dots right away and it was all I had in me not to direct him to do it…so I was really really excited when he ended up doing it on his own!

I put the vocab cards and the counting cards in a baseball card sheet (numbers are on the other side) so we could talk about them whenever!

Participating in calendar time!!  This is the first time he’s really participated with us instead of being asleep or just nearby!  He choose the color of the day and helped put the numbers in the calendar!

He didn’t really play Hi Ho Cherry-O with us much but he did help us sort the fruit a few times.
 

Cutting is his new favorite activity.  He found some giraffe scissors and went at it!  I ordered some better scissors for him on amazon…they should be here soon!!  We’re going to have to work on cutting rules though.  He cut up a dollar bill and the cover of one of his books…

We did more this week but since Royal is potty training I don’t have many appropriate pictures!  I am considering him to be potty trained at this time though!!

Fairly slow tot school week for us due to our little vacation.  And we’ve been potty training…so I didn’t want to share a bunch of underwear shots!
We went to the shuttle launch, and this is what Royal did…
 
We woke him up when there was 10 seconds on the countdown and he was not excited.  At about 6 seconds (point of no return they say) my dad was able to convince him to watch by letting him sit on his shoulders.  Needless to say, Royal was not impressed. 

Royal got a wooden fish to paint.  He started off with the paintbrush…

But quickly moved to his fingers.

He played with the ABC ball for a little bit.

Royal also got in on the paperclip action.  He actually sorted the paperclips by color a bit.

Then I tried to get him to sort them with the tongs.  He used the tongs but refused to sort them.

That’s all for us this week!  Check out other great ideas at 1+1+1=1!
