Our work is never done!
Science & feelings

From the past few weeks...
Moon Sand - 8 parts flour to 1 part baby oil (just don't vacuum it up, please! I learned that the hard way!) |
Fine motor practice with popcorn kernels, spoons, clothespins, & water bottles/bowls |
Naming colors (and foods) at Mama's Grocery Store |
Sorting our shape puzzle onto painter's tape shapes on the floor! |
A name train! She put the letter-cars on the glue & then added the wheels herself! (Sorry it's sideways! Darn phone!) |
Tea party, anyone? |
Indoor snow storm!! (confetti & a fan!) |
This is what we made with the container-painted paper - a birthday gift for MumMum! |
Photo puzzles - a little too tricky for her at 21 months, but she'll enjoy them soon, I bet! |
Stamping circles (with a large water bottle lid) |

Here goes nothing!
I really don't have time for another blog (keeping up with Carlie's monthly posts & Hadley's quarterly posts is challenging enough), but I do want to have a place to chronicle what I do all day with the girls...what works, what doesn't, and what we need or want to revisit later! It will mostly be captioned pictures, I think - and chances are that the girls won't make it into too many pics early on. As soon as Hadley sees that she's getting her picture taken, she stops what she's doing, lunges for the camera, & exclaims, "picture!" because she wants to look at the pictures! Ahh, gotta love toddlers!
So without further ado, here goes nothing!
