Letter of the Week- Letter H

Our letter this week is the letter H- which is Hailey’s favorite letter.  When I told her we were doing the letter H she said, “That’s for Hailey.  ‘H’ is in my name!”

Here is our art project for the letter H this week, which I once again found at No Time for Flashcards.

Here’s what you’ll need: the letter H on construction paper, another piece of construction paper to glue your finished H on, some glue and some hearts.

Tot School- Week in Review

It’s been quite a while since I’ve participated in Tot School but I am going to try to get back into posting our Tot School activities every week.  Here are some of the activities we did last week with links to the activities I posted about. 

 Our letter of the week this week was G.  So Hailey made this Glittery Green G.

It’s been too cold to play outside so we made this fun indoor boxy snowman.

Hailey made this simple snowman.

Hailey loved working on her Melissa and Doug sound puzzle.

Hailey does very well at spelling her name.

Hailey loves working on her shapes.  When she got this puzzle back in October she had a hard time getting the triangle pieces in.  Now she has it all figured out and finishes very quickly.

We baked some yummy cutout cookies.

We had a fantastic, fun filled week!  Stop by 1+1+1=1 to see more Tot School participants.

Cutout Cookies

Almost every day Hailey looks through her cookbook (The Toddler Cookbook by Annabel Karmel) and picks out recipes that she wants to make.  So earlier this week we made the Cutout Cookies.

Ingredients:
2 sticks of softened butter
 3/4 cup superfine sugar
1 egg yolk
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt

Directions:
Mix butter, sugar, egg and vanilla extract in a large bowl until well mixed.
Add flour and salt and mix together.
Roll our the dough and cut out shapes using cookie cutters.
Bake at 350 for about 14 minutes.  Makes about 30 cookies.

Get everything you need.

You’ll need one of these too- a happy toddler who loves to bake!

Happily enjoying the yummy cookies she made.

Snowstorm

Here’s a fun snowstorm that you can enjoy inside your warm house!

Here’s what you need: construction paper (black or blue), white paint and a water bottle.

Put the bottom of the water bottle in the white paint and then stamp it onto your construction paper.  Hailey loved doing this.  She said, “Oh this is a nice snowstorm.  I’m going to hang it on the fridge when it dries.”
