Tot School: A Little Bit of Valentines

Kayleigh is 4 years old.  Wah!

Kayleigh wasn’t really in a school kind of mood this week so, once again, we didn’t do our normal routine.  Instead we did a few Valentines activities and had a birthday party for the girls. Here’s what we did do.

The girls made some Valentines treats and got some treats from Mommy and Daddy.

Our school time included some Valentine patterning with this set I got our of a Scholastic book order.  I remember doing this last year and she needed a lot of help.  Now she could do all the cards on her own, even the more complicated patterns.

She sorted capital and lower case V’s.  She practiced counting with this cute printable from Over the Big Moon.  We used heart “gems” and tongs to mark the correct answer.

We did some more candy heart activities including sorting and graphing.  Candy hearts and candy corns make up Kayleigh’s favorite school activities.

And that pretty much sums up her “schooling” for the week.  In other news, she pulled a fast one on her father.  Be sure to click the link and read about it. LOL  We also had a birthday party for the girls. They had a great time with their friends at the Little Gym.  And I enjoyed watching the fifth graders playing games with the preschoolers. LOL

  1. I miss having little girls. Love the picture of the graphing of the candy hearts. It never even occurred to me to do that kind of activity with my girls when they were younger.

  3. Little Gym looks like a place called GYMBOREE that I used to take Noodle to when he was little. Memories!

  5. I think it's great as homeschoolers to have the flexibility to take it easy when that's the way it needs to go.

    Also just wanted to let you know I passed on the One Lovely Blog award to you. You can read about it here if you like: http://getitdonemomma.blogspot.com/2012/02/lovely-surprise.html
