I'm really enjoying myself - rediscovering some children's books that I'd forgotten about as well as discovering new gems!
- We're using the Five in a Row curriculum for Katy and The Big Snow. We're on day 3. I love how many layers of enjoyment there are to be had in this timeless book. Every day we've been exploring different aspects and uncovering new details in the illustrations.
- Time of Wonder - beautiful water colors and nostalgia for me, having grown up in Coastal NH.
- Little Red Riding Hood
D has also been asking me to teach him how to write letters lately, so I got out our
"ABC's Write and Wipe!" from Kumon. We work on a few different letters a day and we've been having fun. We tried them a few nonths ago, but they didn't really work out. so, now that he is interested again, we're giving it another go. His hand coordination has improved dramatically and he's able to follow the lines independently since he now knows his numbers. I like these rather than simple paper because they can be reused and they have a corresponding word on the back, so they double as flash cards.
