Letter of the Week- Letter V

We have not been around much lately as we are doing some work on our new house and preparing to move in.  We only had time to get one activity done this week.  Our letter this week was the letter V and we made a V is for Volcano craft.

Letter of the Week- Letter U

Jul

Sorry that we disappeared all week!  We were enjoying family from out of town at the beginning of the week and then on Wednesday we finally had our closing for our new house- so we’ve been a bit busy!  We probably won’t be around a whole lot next week either while we get settled in.  But we did have time to do one activity this week- our letter of the week was the letter U.  I showed Hailey some choices for a craft we could do and she picked to make the Unicorn U that we saw at No Time for Flash Cards.

Here’s what you’ll need: a U and a horse shape in a color of your choice, a horn for the unicorn, another piece of construction paper, paint, glue and something to paint with.  We used silver glitter paint- it dries very sparkly looking.

Hailey is 32 months old.

Tot School

Here’s what we’ve been up to over the last week:

Our Crafts ~N~ Things

We drew a little town on the patio- we had some stores, a church, a school, a house, a playground, roads, etc.  Hailey played for a long time driving her cars on the road and putting her little people in the buildings.

Hailey took her grass that we planted in a cup several weeks ago and planted it outside.

She found a worm and held it for a little while before letting it go and watching it dig back into the dirt.

Hailey made a T is for Train picture for our letter of the week.
