Preschool in progress! Part 3

Hello again!

I see I've neglected my blog for two months... that, I believe just shows I'm a mother and motherhood comes first.

So what have we been up to in our preschool at home? come take a look-see.

With the book I mentioned in a previous post, the kids are learning to sound out the simplest words. No they're not taking off with it at this point, but they are getting a foundation for later.

We also have fun with other activities, such as puzzles. They love these ones.
 What could be a better way to learn for a little boy who loves Thomas, than to learn letters, counting and colours with Thomas books?? :D Also, I picked up a Thomas magazine that has lots of activities for children.
 Alphabet stamps!! These have been great as we've learned to make Thank You cards for a few people, and Mommy helps them form the words.

Also activities colouring books and painting books, both gifts to the kids, have been a fun addition to our daily routine. 
 A friend of mine passed on a link, and through Pinterest I downloaded these counting worksheets and the kids have loved a different way to learn about counting.
 And because it's spring, we got the kids two pots each and they picked out their own flowers to plant. What excitement!! They were so eager to do this, and when we couldn't do it right away the day we bought them, they asked the next day. Then after their seeds were planted, they checked their pots every day to see if anything was coming up. You can imagine their excitement when they saw green shoots coming up!!

More adventures to come!!
