Alyson at Oopsy Daisey has a great take on the "Twister" mat so your little guys can practice their "A,B,C's" !   Fun, Fun!!!

http://www.oopseydaisyblog.com/2011/11/make-your-own-abc-mat.html

Check it out!  It looks both fun and easy.

Here are some helpful tips from Alyson.

"* Ask your child to find a letter and perform an action.  (Hop on the letter “J”)

* Ask your child to put a different body part on a specific letter.  This ends up looking a lot like Twister! (Put your nose on the letter “N”)

* Play a “Simon Says” game.  (Simon says to hop to the letter “B”)

* Play music and let your child hop from letter to letter to the music.  Stop the music and ask child to identify what letter he/she is standing on.

* For more advanced children, hop from letter to letter to spell out entire words."

If you are in need of a good look at what Nature Journaling is all about, this blog will give you the eye candy you have been looking for.

Beautiful.

 

I never for a day gave up listening to the songs of our birds, or watching their peculiar habits, or delineating them in the best way I could.

Maureen Spell, from spell out loud, has tried a new product!  My kids love "hands on" learning.

Yuck products are various types of slime. They are made from an acrylic polymer and each Yuck type is different
