Week Reveiw

 Sweets loves coloring, well her version of coloring. I'm just glad she's enjoying herself.
 
 
 
We spent some time learning about the color red. Play dough is always a favorite but this week we took it one step further with our play dough man. I made him a heart and we talked about our body parts how some are on the outside and some are inside our bodies. The heart was an easy introduction to internal organs because you can hear a heartbeat. Bee took turns listening to both Sweets and I. It was an adorable moment.
 
 
 
Sweets is getting much much better with shapes. She still needs some direction occasionally but she understand the concept.
 
 
Strength training!
They zoomed all over the house. The carpet was trickier but it didn't stop Bee.
 




 

These two make such a great team. I was working with Sweets to get the pegs into the holes. When she had them arranged then Bee nailed them back down. It is amazing watching these two play. I can't wait to watch these two grow and learn together. 

We have a little musician in our house! She is always playing on something but now she has discovered he joy of pots and pans. I maybe shouldn't have taught her this but honestly I like a little company in the kitchen.
 

This moment was another favorite. Bee was bringing me food, lots and lots of play food. We store the food in the living room, where I was sitting, but Bee kept running into the kitchen then delivering me his gourmet meals. I snuck into the kitchen to see what he was doing and he had one of his pans on the burner and a spatula. He was frying up everything for me. I also love his ingenious make shift stool.

Finally a Calendar Station!!

I hit up the back to school sales and organized our freezer into our calendar station.
Simple yet satisfied.
 
 
Everyday after we have breakfast and get dressed for the day we are going to talk about which day it is. We will look out our window and see the weather and discuss it. The calendar for Tot school is for my quick reference but also to help me know what is coming up so I can be prepared.

I need to get the months, days and numbers laminated before I let the kids change the date. Bee loves to spin the arrows for the weather already. He is always telling me that it is windy outside and being in Southern Alberta, he is normally right.
