Stacking Cups

She poured with Noah's Ark Beads.Noah's Ark Novelty Beads.

 Used tongs (got them from Hobby Lobby) to transfer big pom poms.

Hannah also played with Caden's Lighting McQueen Race Track (great hand-eye coordination).

Hannah played with her LeapFrog magnet letters inside her workbox.  Silly Girl!

The Melissa and Dough animal magnets are great for learning animals and their sounds.  Hannah loves them.

We had a great week even though we had no theme.  We just kind of played around and explored with different things.

Book of the Week- Thumper's Fluffy Tail

Lessons From- The Itty-Bitty Bookworm

We played with our Color and Texture puzzle.  I showed Hannah the fluffy bunny and she put it together.

Bunny Ears (The Itty-Bitty Bookworm)- I cut out bunny ears and had the kids color them and then glue cotton balls on the ears.  Once they dried I used a sentence strip to staple the ears on for their hat.

Bunny Tails (The Itty-Bitty Bookworm)- Used the printout from The Itty-Bitty Bookworm and we used a clothespin and cotton ball as a paint brush to paint the bunny.

Book of the Week

Bunny Ears (The Itty-Bitty Bookworm)- We made bunny ears.  Usually Caden wants nothing to do with hats but he wore this one for two days.  Oh, and in the picture of both of the kids Caden did not want to stand by Hannah.  Silly Boy!

Rabbit Facts- (The Itty-Bitty Bookworm) I printed out the bunny pictures provided by The Itty-Bitty Bookworm and we talked about each one of them.  Then I made two columns on the white board,  What we know about rabbits and What we've learned about rabbits.  Then the kids taped the correct rabbit picture in the correct column.

Little Bunny Foo Foo Song (click here to get it)- We watched Little Bunny Foo Foo song on you tube. 

Cotton Tail (The Itty-Bitty Bookworm)- We painted our bunny's gray like in the story.  For paint brushes we used a clipped a cotton ball with a clothespin.  Then glued a pom pom for a tail.

Bunny Tails (The Itty-Bitty Bookworm)- I had Hannah match the correct colored pom pom to the correct colored bunny first.  Caden helped Hannah, then it was his turn.  It was so funny because Caden put them in the wrong spot and looked at me with a smile.  He knew it was too easy so he played a little game.  lol

Sizing Bunnies- I had Caden put the bunnies in order from largest to smallest.

Shape of the Week is Oval (The Itty-Bitty Bookworm)-  We made oval butterflies.

Caden played with Motor Works we got from Discovery Toys a while back.  This is always a favorite.

Easter 2010

We spent the day before Easter at Nonnie's house in the country.  Every time we have gone to Nonnie's in the past with the kids they were nothing but fussy.  This time they had a much better time because they got to enjoy the great outdoors, which any kid loves!

In the picture above the kids were holding hands walking back from the pond to Nonnie's house.  So sweet!!!!

Both of the kids loved throwing rocks into the pond!!

Both kids got tired of walking on our walk!

Caden's favorite and most memorable part of the trip was fishing!!!!  I could not believe it...he figured out how to cast and reel in his bate all by himself (his bate was a Lightening McQueen tire that came with the fishing pole, no hook).   Love both of these pictures!!!!:))))

Mee-Maw made a bunny cake for the kids to decorate!

We died Easter Eggs!

And hunted for them!  Caden new exactly how to hunt for Easter Eggs this year!  Hannah got the hang of it and she was just too cute walking around with her basket in her hand.  Caden would find one for her and show her where it was. 

We can't forget our little cousin Lyla and Aunt Jill!!!  Lyla's first Easter!  Love you guys!

 Then the Easter Bunny Came!
