Having Fun Learning

Our Week Having Fun Learning Together!!!

Emily is 43 months old and Juliette is 14 months old

This week we had a great time doing all different types of activities.  Emily said that she wanted books about cats so we went to the library and got a stack of books about cats.  Then of course we did some fun cat themed activities too!  Juliette has been joining in so much more.  She had a great time doing art project with us this week.

Emily did a C-A-T Letter Find, Sort and Graph where she practiced many different math skills.

When I saw this idea on Kingdom First Homeschool I knew Emily would love it.  I wrote some letters on our chalk board and then gave Emily a paint brush and water and letter her trace over them to erase them. 

We played Cootie…

…and Dr. Seuss’s Super Stretchy ABC Game.

After reading Cookie’s Week, Emily made a shape cat.

 

Emily colored this leaf Emergent Reader from Hubbard’s Cupboard and was so proud of her self for reading it.  She took it out all week to read it to anyone who would listen!

My friend made these pattern worksheets for the girls.  Emily really enjoyed finishing the pattern.  When she was finished she said she wanted to do more.

We also had to make some yummy cupcakes after reading If you Give a Cat a Cupcake!!

While Emily was coloring Juliette kept pointing to the markers.  I gave her one and she started scribbling all over the paper.  She also loved putting the cap back on the marker.  Unfortunately, after a few minutes she decided she wanted to put the marker in her mouth and she looked like she had pink lipstick all over her face.

So later we tried…

Juliette loved creating water pictures.  I gave her water and a paint brush and she went right to work painting her blue piece of paper.

Juliette liked filling her shape sorter bucket.  She discovered that if you take of the lid it is much easier to put the shapes in :0)

After Emily finished tracing over the letters on the chalk board, Juliette helped her cover the whole board in water.  Both Girls had a great time working together.

I took out our large buttons and let Juliette fill an empty puffs container with them.  She put every single one in and then smiled as she dumped them all out!

 

We went to the library for Mother Goose Time.  Juliette and I sang songs and did some finger plays.  We read a book and then played with all the different toys and children.  Juliette found the phone and held onto it the whole time, just like Emily used to do.

        Juliette did her first art project.
