I’m not going to lie – this was one of those weeks where I was dying for it to be over. The fighting, the mess, the complete lack of schedule…I was not planning on making a Moment to Remember post at all. But then Baloo threw me a curve ball. He picked up the book…
We got lucky and received this book from a neighbor a few months ago. Since then it has been a favorite of Baloo and we read it at least once a week, if not every night. It seemed like the perfect book to elaborate on! We started off talking about the color purple. Royal still…
I personally love literature based themes and learning. We have Vol. 1 of Five in a Row but I haven’t gotten into that too much. I know there are many literature based programs, and I’m sure they are wonderful, but at the moment they just aren’t for us. So I decided we would do our…
We’re having some issues lately with the boys not respecting what they own and what other people own. I figured November is the perfect time to talk about being thankful for what you have and respecting it! Originally I was going to have Baloo make a Thankfulness book but the idea of the turkey crept…
I was inspired by a good friend of mine who has an incredible ability to come up with interesting questions. With her permission I have typed them up to use as writing prompts! Download here There are 17 questions in this set: 1. What is the strongest part of your body? 2. What kind…
Royal is 30 months School this week was hit and miss but we did spend a lot of time just having fun outside! Royal loves to be outside!! Whenever we go out now he gets the Boot Scoot Bike and just rides. I’m pleasantly surprised at how comfortable he is getting with the bike, especially…
It has cooled off considerably down south so we are finally getting out more and having a lot more fun outside! Baloo has been encountering more sight words that he doesn’t know lately so I’m trying to incorporate them more into other activities we do! We tried a sight word relay race. I wrote down…
Baloo is 5 years 3 months We have been having so much fun outdoors this week that we haven’t had much time for indoor school work – not that I’m complaining! Baloo has been riding this scooter a lot more lately and I am amazed at how confident he is getting with it! He learned…
Baloo loves Angry Birds, if you can’t tell!! He was the black Angry Bird for Halloween and asked for his face to be painted with the yellow Angry Bird and one of the pigs at a recent fair we went to. So any time he has a chance to do something Angry Bird related he…
It’s been awhile since we had our last sensory bin out so the boys were pretty excited about this one. I intended on it being a fall bin but it kind of turned into a Halloween/Fall bin. I found the cutest little pumpkins at Walmart and couldn’t resist. Other things in our bin:Fake bugsFoam leavesLeaf…
I’m a bit late, but thought I’d share our November Calendar cards anyway. We’re doing an AABB pattern this month with turkeys and pilgrim hats. These cards will fit the Target $1 pocket charts if you followed the tutorial at A Heart for Home. Download Cards Here!
We continued with C week and the color yellow this week with a bit of angry birds thrown in. We made some C’s with play doh And we finally got our yellow tray out and talked about all the yellow things! We played with the cat color cards a few times this week. Royal’s…
