I don’t know how many Tuesdays at Tinytown we will be having from now on out. It was very fun, but I think we will be taking an extended break from there.
Now on to Tot School!
This is a really neat puzzle game for toddlers. I have the Classic Pooh hide & seek game. I found it on sale at Target. I can’t find it on their web site now, but Toys R Us has several different ones including Disney Princesses. Wiggles really enjoys this. You can click on the picture to follow a link to Toys R Us and the product. It is recommended for ages 18 months-3 years.
This picture is actually from the weekend, but I thought I would throw it in. Wiggles and Big Sisters were coloring on the driveway.
This week:
LHTH-Letter C, Number 3, God Blesses Abraham
Abeka-Letter C, Number 3, Finger play Clap with Me
Baby Signs-Mealtime Signs
I wanted to share our finger play for this week for Abeka. It is really cute and the little ones genuinely join in pretty quickly.
Clap with Me
Clap with me. 1,2,3
Clap, clap, clap, just like me.
(Clap hands)
Shake with me. 1,2,3
Shake, shake, shake, just like me.
(Shake body)
Roll with me. 1,2,3
Roll, roll, roll, just like me.
(Roll hands one over the other.)
Snap with me. 1,2,3
Snap, snap, snap, just like me.
(Snap fingers)
Fold with me. 1,2,3
Fold, fold, fold, just like me.
(Fold hands and lay them in lap.)
First we did our Wiki Stiks for the letter C. I gave no instruction since this is our 3rd letter and her did pretty good on his own. 
We are cutting from our Let’s Cut Paper! Kumon First Steps Workbook. He had to cut down the middle (still working on cutting skills…he wants to use both hands for the scissors) then match the front to the back of the car.
This was our Cc page for Abeka today. You had to fingerprint paint the C. He did really well and we didn’t even get messy!!
Here, he is working on his concept cards for Baby Signs. I wanted to get a picture of him signing so badly, but every time I would get the camera and snap the picture it would always be just after he was finishing the sign. Baby signs is really great at building vocabulary and limiting frustrations in a toddler. I would recommend it to anyone with an infant or toddler.
Even though he is talking more and more…there are times when his emotions and temperament get in the way of his vocalizing what he wants or needs. Signs can be such a great benefit to the child and the parent.
They also have a potty learning program to help train your child. I can’t recommend this enough.
Wiggles watching the Potty Train video by Baby Signs. Here he is getting on the Potty Train (choo choo).
We were supposed to color the cups, but Wiggles was having none of it so instead I numbered them and we counted a few times to end our Tot School day.
