Cute Little Pumpkin

We made this cute and easy little pumpkin.

You’ll need: small styrofoam ball, orange tissue paper, black felt, small black pipe cleaner, glue.

Rip the orange tissue paper into small pieces and then glue them onto the styrofoam ball, covering the whole thing up.

While your child is busy covering the ball up, cut out some pieces from the felt for a face.

Push the pipe cleaner into the top of your pumpkin for a stem.  Add a face to the pumpkin.

The finished pumpkin.

Pumpkin Sequencing

Last week our theme was pumpkins.  So we made some sequencing cards to help Hailey learn the steps in growing a pumpkin.

First Hailey colored the cards.

Then she cut them apart.

Then she glued them onto construction paper in the correct order.

Letter of the Week- Letter D

Our letter last week was the letter Dd.  Here are some of the activities that we did.

Hailey used the Do-a-Dot art to decorate the letter Dd.

We played with Playdough and used a cookie cutter D to cut out the letter D.

For our alphabet book we made a D is for Doctor bag that we saw over at Homeschool Creations.

You’ll need: white, red and black construction paper, scissors, tape, glue and some (child safe) doctor supplies.

Here is Hailey working on putting the medical supplies into her doctor bag.  (She was sick last week, so this particular day happened to be a pajama day!)

The outside of her D is for Doctor Bag.

The inside of her Doctor bag.

We also ate some donuts to go along with the letter D, but I forgot to take a picture.

Tot School- Week in Review

Hailey is 36 months old.

We had a busy week last week and didn’t get most of our activities done.  We were out and about every day plus it was Hailey’s 3rd birthday.  So, we did a few projects but most were left undone.  Here are the activities we did have a chance to do with links to the original posts with more details.

Letter Activity:

We made this Cc is for Clock which will go into our alphabet book.

Theme Activities:

Our theme was Fire Safety and we made this fire out of red and yellow paint and then glued a fire truck onto the fire.

Hailey wanted to make Dot the Dalmatian after reading one of our fire safety books that had a dalmatian named Dot in it.

Other Activities:

Hailey loves puzzles and worked on her number puzzle.

She also worked on these shape puzzles.
