April Ideas

11
Apr

I try to do other things with Hailey, besides the crafts that I take pictures of to share here. So, I thought I’d give a brief summary of the non-craft activities we have done or that I plan to do with Hailey this month.

I created cards with pictures of adult and baby animals on them. Then we matched up the babies with their mommies.
We are going to plant some grass seed and take pictures as it grows. (It’s still been a little bit chilly here, but hopefully we can start this in the next couple of weeks.)
Play matching and sorting games with these umbrellas.
I have a Randy the Raindrop story that I am going to use on a flannel board (that I still need to make). I’ll take pictures of it when I actually do it.
Make dice with farm animals on them. Then sing “Old MacDonald” and roll the die to see which animal we will use for that verse.

Raindrop writing- practice the letters in Hailey’s name using these raindrops. The reason the raindrops are white is that is the color I am focusing on this month.

That’s all for now. I’ll be back to share more ideas as I come up with them.

April Plans

31
Mar

Each month I like to pick a few themes and then plan some activities around them for Hailey and I to do together.

For the month of April our themes are going to include weather, spring and farm animals. Stay tuned for the different activities and crafts we do this month.

In addition to that I will also concentrate on the number 1, the color white and the shape oval. Every two weeks I also introduce a new letter. I have a little area set up in Hailey’s playroom with the different number, color, shape and letter I am focusing on.
