My boys all love water. Some love swimming, some love hoses, and some love baths, but they all love water in one form or another. And it’s probably only natural being that we always seem to live in the hot southern states!! We have to cool off somehow! I’ve been trying to figure out more…
We had such a relaxing week here just doing school as we pleased. We were outside for school pretty much every day just enjoying the beautiful mornings here. Royal is really soaking up these printables. He loves the trucks and practically begs for me. I’m so glad to have found something he is so interested…
I have to channel my inner high school student for this one. Its been a long time since I have made one of these fortune teller origami-esqe things. At dinner last weekend I had paper and 3 little boys to entertain and it just came to me. Baloo was so enraptured with the fortune teller…
Royal is 3 years old I was pretty excited when Royal enjoyed Aa is for ambulance last week, but that was nothing compared to this week! Royal was actually asking me for more work and more coloring! Before we were even ready to start “school” for the day he would be asking about bulldozers. I…
Royal is 3 years old I’m so excited to be able to share this new program I’ve been working on for Royal! He’s getting more and more interested in letters, numbers, shapes, etc so I really wanted to take advantage of his interest. Trucks seem to be a real hit with Royal and for…
I’ve always wanted to do a sound matching activity but never really gotten around to it. Plus, most of the tutorials I see involve using old film canisters…and I just don’t come by those often anymore! Then it hit me to use some old plastic cups! I used 3 different types of dried beans –…
We all love the Usbone “That’s Not My…” books. I think we have 5 or 6 and they are always on birthday/Christmas lists. We even have one in French – C’est Ne Pas Mon Chien! After reading through our entire collection today I suggested that we make our own. We brainstormed the topic and decided…
We had a pretty laid back week! We’re doing a lot of interest-based learning and focusing less heavily on specific tasks. Baloo is loving it! We’ve started working on addition in Math-U-See. We did a bit of extra practice with trains. I love that the trains have magnets so we start with them separate. I…
One technique that really helped Baloo learn his letters was simply noticing that letters are everywhere. He was so excited to be able to point out letters when we were out and about. I’ll never forget one time when we were walking up to a store (Staples) and just as we were about to cross…
With MLK day on Monday and my husband being off work, my whole week was thrown off. I completely forgot to print out the usual You Can Read and Raising Rock Stars stuff Sunday night, and again Monday night, AND Tuesday night. By the time Wednesday rolled around I realized I might as well just…
Royal is 32.5 months old This week we focused on the letter G for goat. Royal had a little goat figure that he carried around for most of the week and enjoyed talking all about goats! He traced the letters all on his own! I think this is a first for him! He also…
