So...our full on Montessori toddler school has begun! This week it was
all about the letter "A" which I tell Audrey should be her very favorite
letter since her name begins with it and all. Here is a run down of
what we did this week. We made applesauce, I was really surprised but
Audrey was simply not a fan. That's okay Carlo and I love it so we
happily ate it! We colored and painted various letter A coloring
sheets, you can find these free on the internet! I told Audrey she was
painting some letter A art! I printed and Carlo laminated
retro alphabet letters.
The print-outs are free but I compare them to something that
Anthropologie would sell honestly. The laminating paper cost $30 and
they came out awesome! Carlo is wonderful for laminating them for! We
made some apple
playdough.
The recipe is super simple, and Audrey loved helping "cook it". She
thought it was cool for a short while but didn't hold her attention as
long as I thought. Hell, I was still making puppies and bunnies with it
aka animals! I made a letter A bag, with items that start with "A"
like: acorn, alligator, animals, apple, avocado, airplane. These are
things I had around the house so it was all free and Audrey had a blast
going through the bag. I made a
felt board
this week! I couldn't be happier about that!! I make all the pieces
myself because I simply love to draw but don't have the time so this is a
wonderful creative outlet. This site has some wonderful ideas! We
talked about autumn and used leaves and pumpkins and then I made
different letter A items: an album, alligator, acorn, apple, and an
apple tree. She puts everything on herself and tells me what the items
are. The only thing I didn't make were animals, I may do that tonight
though. I am already prepping for letter "B" week.
