Blueberry boy!

Freeze dried fruit does not mean "mess free" fruit. Blueberries fresh do not turn your baby blue but freeze dried they sure do!

Preschool Counting

Charlotte and her counting "board"

Alestair finished for the 3rd time.
There is a toy behind his head he is not
really a little devil :)

Emmett working at just hammering. 

I found this idea one day looking for some other things but since I had just gotten a new sewing machine and it came with styrofoam I thought we could use it before trashing it. I used light bright nails from Emmett's Halloween pumpkin and hammers from Alestair's tool set. I wrote the numbers on the foam and then put dots on each number (same number of dots as the number itself). The kids hammered nails into each dot and counted them. It was very successful and lasted about 2hrs!
