Week 2 went fairly well. One of my struggles this week was my 2 1/2 year old. He is grumpy, doesn't want to nap, wants to do what the 4 year old does, and decided he didn't want to be potty trained anymore. So I have been trying different nap schedules. Letting him join us and playing it by ear. I was really excited about Friday. I had our Cowboy stuff all planned and thought that they would both like it a lot. Well they did but they had there own agenda and ideas. Which was OK but nothing went as planned. We did get through the whole week and I felt it went well.
Monday we read Bunny Money by Rosemary wells and talked more about money. They got to go to the candy store and buy a piece of candy or two with the 15 cents they had. Tuesday we did a sound walk all about the sun with Caleb. We did a pattern sun ray game that I made and watched a science movie about the sun. (He loves those) Wed. was red day. We ate lots of red food and all wore red. Even Mike is trying to wear the color of the day so he can be involved. We made red mobiles and played with red water. Caleb and I talked about recipes. We followed a rebus recipe to make baked apples, perfect after picking lots of apples the Saturday before. Thursday the kids had a lot of fun. we talked about loud and soft in music and how certain music is "sleepy" music and other is "dance" music. I got some different types from the library and we had fun dancing around the house with scarfs to the different music. I also got a older Disney movie with cartoon to music that they enjoyed. Mason and I made oobleck and he enjoyed playing with that. Friday was Cowboy day. We watched Disney's "Pecos Bill" and dressed like cowboys, tye died handkerchiefs and played a game with a felt cowboy that I made.
