Tumble Bumble-Shape Collage

He really enjoyed the shape collage.  

The lesson for the shape collage said to put the shapes on contact paper.  I have tried that before and Caden loves glueing much more.  

I wrote the name of the shapes on top of the shapes.  He enjoyed that too because after I wrote the name of the shape he wanted to do the same.  

I told him to try and draw the shape...that is what all the drawing is around the shapes.

Caden was getting a little frustrated with cutting the play dough so I brought out the real scissors and this time we cut paper.  He liked the paper but enjoyed cutting the yarn better.

Tumble Bumble-Animal Prints

Caden really enjoyed cutting yesterday so I brought it out again.  This time we cut play dough.  It seemed to be a little more difficult for Caden to cute play dough 

rather than paper with the real scissors.

We read our Tumble Bumble book and matched our little piggy with the book.

Then we made animal prints in our play dough.  

The idea was in our lesson from The Itty Bitty Bookworm.

Today we used our Tot Trays again!  He really enjoys having the activity 

brought out to him on the trays.  I have tried a rug before but he likes the trays better.  

Tumble Bumble-Outside Art

Painting the letter X with water.

I can not believe that Caden painted for about 30 minutes with just water and a paint brush.  I really thought he would not last very long at this activity because it wasn't real paint.  

Tumble Bumble-My Favorite Character

Tumble Bumble-making purple

Yeah!  It is a new month and we are reading Tumble Bumble 

from the Bailey's Kit by The Itty-Bitty Bookworm.  

We learned how to make purple.  We talked about the first two colors I put on his paper (red and blue).  I asked Caden what colors they were and then I told him if he mixes them together with his hands it will make another color...let's find out what it is?
