Teacher Appreciation Week takes place (at least in the US) during the first full week of May. I am a HUGE FAN of teachers, especially my kids' teachers. Here's what we're doing for our teachers this year for Teacher Appreciation Week.
My kids love sensory bins! I don't make a TON of them, but I do enjoy putting them together for the holidays throughout the year, and then I love watching them discover the things I've put in them when I randomly leave them out for them to find. This one is a springy Easter themed one, and it's been a big hit so far!
Spelling is a vital part of a child's education, and generally, kiddos start learning to spell somewhere in the preschool/pre-k/kindergarten age (unless you're Froot Loop, who started spelling his first words at age 2...). I've found a bunch of fun toys and games that can help young kids learn to spell (which also helps them on their reading journey!)
When Froot Loop was 4, we re-arranged his room so that it was more of a "big boy" bedroom, since he now had a younger brother and that younger brother was about to move into his room with him.
St. Patrick's Day is around the corner! I have some Irish blood in me, but it goes a couple of generations back. We love to celebrate St. Patrick's Day by wearing green and by doing some St. Patrick's Day crafts! Here's a roundup of some fun supplies I found to make some St. Patrick's Day crafts!
My youngest son helped me pick out this week's Wishlist Wednesday item. He's REALLY been in to Play-Doh lately, and he found this Play-Doh at the store and asked me to get for him. I said no, but I did put it on his wishlist!
This latest issue of Wishlist Wednesday is from Cocoa Puff's wishlist. It seems as though he has a new thing he likes to do: jigsaw puzzles!
Valentine's Day is TOMORROW! Here are TWO fun, easy, and inexpensive last-minute crafts made from stuff I found at the dollar store.
Ohhhh Cocoa Puff... He likes going to preschool so much that on his days home, he gets bored and always wants to do stuff with MAMA! Most of the time that's okay, but sometimes, Mama needs to get things done. So, I let him go with a bunch of art supplies and told him to have fun while he crafted and I sat next to him, working.
Froot Loop's class recently had their Fairy Tale unit. It was a lot of fun and it all culminated in a big Fairy Tale Festival at school. There were lots of fun costumes and streamers and crafts. Anyway, I found a use for some of the leftover streamers! Check out what I made...
