A week for a new letter and number.  We are learning I and 9 now.  We’ve done some coloring pages and we have been practicing  our numbers when we are at the grocery store.  :) I’ll say, “where are we going?” and she will have to tell me what number isle we are going into before we keep shopping.  She loves it…lol.  The simple things that amuse little ones..haha.  Tonight we found a tip online about the letter I to make an igloo.  So with a white piece of paper and her new ruler, I held the ruler and Emmi drew lines with her ruler.  She was so proud of herself making straight lines.  After we did the lines I cut up the paper into strips and then she cut them into squares for the “ice”.  Then we took a piece of blue construction paper and some glue and we made an igloo with a doorway.  Afterwards she had me draw a polar bear and a man in the doorway…I’m so not an artist..lol.  But, it was fun.

Another fun school game we have been playing that I would highly recommend is called “Franklin Goes To School”. It is a great board game for preschoolers and children up to age 8.  The questions vary for the age of the child to make the game harder for the older children, which means you can play as a family too!  The way I played with Emmi was she would spin and we would do the question but when it came to my turn and I went, she would “help me” answer my question too.  So she had double the learning and tons of fun!  You will def enjoy it!
