Happy 4th of July!

We made a flag to celebrate the 4th of July.

Here’s what you’ll need- construction paper, star stickers and glue.

Cut out some red stripes and a blue square.

Add some star stickers to the blue square.

Glue the red stripes onto your white construction paper.

Enjoy your flag.

Glitter Fireworks

After our failed attempt at fireworks the other day I decided we would try a different method.

Here’s what you’ll need: paper, glitter and glue.

Put the glue on in the shape of fireworks and then sprinkle with glitter.

Pretty sparkly fireworks.

Letter of the Week- Letter T

Our letter this week is the letter T and so we made a Train.

Here’s what you’ll need: construction paper, glue, marker, eyes, scissors.

Cut out the train tracks and some shapes for the train.

Glue the tracks onto the paper in the shape of a T.

Add a train on the tracks.

The completed T is for Train.  (You’ll notice our train has eyes- Hailey asked to add eyes to the train and when I told her that trains don’t have eyes she said, “Thomas does.”  So we added eyes.)

Tot School- Week in Review

Hailey is 32 months old.

I ran out of time last Sunday and never got my Tot School post done.  So this week I’m posting about what we did over the last 2 weeks.  For some reason it seems like we haven’t had as much time lately so there aren’t a whole lot of activities.  I have links to the activities that I posted about already.

For our letter R we made this Rainbow R.

We were working on an ocean theme and we made this Hermit Crab.

After about 3 weeks of ocean activities we finished up by making this Seahorse.

Hailey loved this game I found in one of my Mailbox magazines.  There are several different colored houses that you lay out on the floor and then hide a little mouse under one of the houses.  Then we said, “Little mouse, little mouse, are you in the [purple] house?”  She loved it!!

We moved on to a theme about outer space and made this Star S for our letter of the week.

We used shaving cream and glue to make a full moon.

Then we made a space shuttle.

Hailey used her Thomas the Train game to make a triangle.
