We are having lots of fun practicing the alphabet and numbers with our toddlers. Even the babies sit with us during circle time and join in on the fun! One of our favorite circle games right now is Hot Potato; we have reversed the rules though as it seems everyone loves to be the hot potato!
We also are running the Your Baby Can Read program daily but haven't discovered any baby einsteins from the program yet--we'll keep trying!
When we build with blocks it seems the thing to make now is castles; it used to be garages for our dinosaurs, so our architectural abilities are improving!
Several times a week we pull out the paints or playdoh and get creative. When we aren't doing that, it's old fashioned fun with colors and coloring books. We love using lots of colors in our pictures - the more, the better!
Meal time is sometimes a challenge; the kids aren't always receptive to the healthy meals that are provided. We really encourage clean plates, and the kids love to show Grandma Lisa when they are finished. She gives them a big "WOOHOO!" - they love to giggle about that!
2012 is going to be a fun year full of exploration and imagination!
