Lack of Posting

I am so sorry for the lack of posting lately.  Recently Rich changed my blogs over to a new hosting company.  Everything went fine on my other blogs, but for some reason this blog got messed up.  I don’t think anything is actually messed up that you can see- but behind the scenes things are a mess.  When the conversion was done all of my categories multiplied and I now have 15 of each category (only in my admin area, not on my actual blog).  Posts seemed to have moved themselves from one category to another and everything is running super slow.  Some of the links I have to older posts might not be working while I am trying to fix all of this mess.  I’ll be back to posting crafts once I can get everything sorted out.

Letter of the Week- Letter G

It’s been a while since we have done a letter of the week project- but we have gotten back into doing it.  Hopefully we’ll be able to continue this time!

Hailey colored her Letter G Template.

For our letter project that will go in our ABC book I decided that Hailey would make a Gingerbread man.

I cut out a Gingerbread shape and Hailey added all of the decorations.

The completed G is for Gingerbread page.

Polar Bear Mask

We made this easy polar bear mask:

You’ll need: 2 paper plates, black paint, pink paint, pipe cleaner, yarn, one section of an egg carton.

Paint the egg carton section black.

Cut an ear shape from your second paper plate and then have your child add some pink to it.

Cut out eye holes, put everything together, add some yarn and you have a polar bear mask.  Hailey did not want to wear hers… oh well!

Polar Bear Book

We did a mini theme about polar bears a couple of weeks ago and I never got around to finishing posting our projects. Here is a cute little book idea about polar bears.

First we read some of Hailey’s books about polar bears.

Then we made our own:

Hailey painted and added snow flakes to one of the pages in her book.

Hailey painted some water on one of the pages.

Here are the completed pages of her book:

Hailey told me what words to write on the left hand side of the page.

This page was painted with white, then Hailed added some clear glitter, then added some sequence for snow flakes.

Hailey added a black nose and black eyes using a marker.

On this page Hailey added ripped up tissue paper for the padded feet.

And on the last page Hailey added blue paint for water.
