ABC's, Easy As 1, 2, 3

A Continuation of Our Book of ABC's

G and E's Book of ABC's is coming along wonderfully (see last week's post). It will still take us a couple of more weeks to finish. I wanted to also add a project for the week, even though we were still working on the book, so something very easy was a must. I thought adding the numbers at the end of the book would be something the girls would like to see.

Each day, we worked on a number. I printed the number and G would find that number of items and put them on the paper for the photo. So far, we have used an apple, dolls, markers, books, and teddy bears. She enjoyed choosing the items and had fun counting. We will continue to work on numbers to 10 and letters in the coming weeks.

I try to use things we already have in the house or in our ever-expanding craft box, usually garnished with finds from the Dollar Store. So, this blog illustrates “Just a Few Gems” to hopefully spark some ideas for ceating with your little ones. When the pandemic began and daycares closed, I went from “Ok, let's make a detailed schedule for the day and get on track". Reality set in pretty

 We Made Our Own Book of ABC's! Easy. Fun. Worth it. I LOVED this activity! I have always wanted to write a book (and have started but not finished many books, many times) but this time, I will actually finish one! Granted, this particular work may not be what you would consider a literary masterpiece and the editing was a breeze (hehe), but it is a book nonetheless and one that our whole family is excited for.  What We Did The prep was incredibly easy.  DAY 1: "A"is for Apple I drew out a capital letter "A" and a lower case letter "a". We talked about the letter, traced it with our finger, and talked about the sound it made. We used items we had around the house to help us to trace the letters. For the "A", we used stamps that G really likes. We then talked about words that began with the letter, such as "Apple" and "Animal". We took a photo of G with an apple and a photo of the letter sheet. I then edited them together t
