Combined Tot School

- Adam is 40 months and Abby is 14 months -

I didn’t do a theme with Adam this week and really only did focused play a couple of days.  Daddy was out of town and Mommy was in survival mode.  Wish me luck this week as he is leaving again!  But then he’s done traveling….for now! :)

Abby spent the week doing puzzles

Playing with her Melissa & Doug shape peg thingy

Putting Adam’s little clips into a baggie

Coloring

Working next to Brother.  She wants to be doing everything that he’s doing!

And be everywhere that he is!!
This week Adam worked on a number puzzle (above) and his Melissa & Doug bear family dress-up puzzle.

He tried out our new Tangoes Jr. set that I got for free using my Huggies Rewards points.  It’s magnetic and everything fits inside the case so it’ll be the perfect airplane toy for our trip to San Diego next month!

He completed 2 more coloring pages in his Handwriting Without Tears workbook.

And drew on his own.

He requested to play with the pony beads and numbered egg carton.  He put the corresponding number of beads into each space.

Then he used measuring spoons to transfer beads from one spoon to the other and then into an ice cube tray.

We also watched a Little Pim Spanish DVD that we have from Netflix (they LOVE this series so I’m thinking about buying the DVDs) and also Baby Signing Time.  Abby is picking up on new signs really quickly now!  She now signs ‘leaf’ and ‘stop’ and Adam is loving re-learning all the signs he once knew as a toddler.  Lest you think they don’t watch anything else…there is always some Team Umizoomi, Jake and the Neverland Pirates, or Dora throughout the day as well. :)

The next 2 weeks we’ll be doing Spring and Easter things and Adam can hardly wait to dive into the plastic eggs that I bought to play with (and that he saw before I could hide them).
