Coloring Together

Fun with Boxes!!

I had two boxes from Braden's fundraiser. They were a big hit. We used markers, crayons, glue sticks and even tried the scissors. One box was Big and one was Flat. We talked about shapes, sizes and colors while we were working. Lucy practiced her ladybugs on the flat box and Carly Sue and Sienna practiced their C's and S's. Evan used the big box for a garage. Caraline couldn't reach the top of the big box when it was on the table. She came up with the great idea of putting the box onto the ground. We then got to draw on the top. Then she flipped it over and we all took turns writing and riding inside. Fun, fun, fun!

Stories with a Friend

Lucy and Sienna finished up with their lunch and went in to find their nap mats. Lucy "read" from "Mimi and Lulu" as Sienna listened.

Cornmeal + Scooping/Measuring/Pouring = FUN

Pumpkin Fun

More Fall

We went for a walk in between the rain showers. We found a tree with really big leaves. We found a few that were not too soggy and brought them back to the house. We decided to paint them and they turned out great. We are going to go back in a few days and get a few more. We are also going to check and see if they are different colors than the ones we got at the beginning of the week.

Lucy almost didn't paint a leaf. She was very busy with the doctor equipment and taking care of a sick teddy bear. But, she changed her mind and decided to paint. I'm glad!

Yellow Leaves are Falling Down...Falling Down...Falling Down!

We went outside and gathered some of the yellow leaves that are falling from a tree near the sandbox. We have been observing the leaves in the tree as only a few turned yellow.  Then the tree was full of yellow leaves. Then...they were all over the ground. They had started to fall. They are such a pretty shade of yellow and the leaves were soooo soft. They make a beautiful fall picture.
