This Caterpillar is STILL Hungry =) Monday...1 Apple

We call today Mind-Blowing Monday because we did sooo much!

*I just HAD to post these! This is what happens when a toddler dresses herself =) I LOVE IT! Did Elton John loose his glasses!?

Now on to our Tot School for the day:

C is for Caterpillar. Amelia made a cute little caterpillar (that reminded me of Lifesavers) out of the letter 'C'.

What letter is that!? 'Ceeeeeeee' Too cute =) 

And the final product. I let Mia pick out which color of 'c' she wanted to use but I did the gluing for her (I think she would go a little crazy with it!)

Each day we start out with our Daily Planner. This week I am really highlighting the Days of the Week. In the Very Hungry Caterpillar the days of the week are labeled so I thought this would be a good time to teach that =)

It's rainy out today so Mia chose the umbrella-boy does she love this thing! I have to put it away once we are done or she would spend the whole day doing it!

Here Amelia is looking through a book I just finished reading to her. It's Eric Carle's It's Monday. I chose this book to read because it focuses on the days of the week. So we will read this story each morning (this week) with our Daily Planner.

This is Amelia's 1st Sensory Bin! My goal is to change it out for each theme =) This week it is full of caterpillars and butterflies (and things related to that =)

Sensory Bin contents: caterpillar & butterfly stamps, glow in the dark butterflies, caterpillar and butterfly foam stickers, a bug container, counting caterpillars, butterfly cookie cutter, butterfly erasers and butterfly play-doh stamps.

Amelia created her own fine motor skill activity by balancing each object! Good Job, Mia-bug!

 Just another cute picture...she is pretty pleased with herself (she put on her headband all by herself!)

A Buggy Tea Party! We had a tea party this afternoon where we also sorted the dishes...

 Made sure they looked presentable....

 And we stacked the dishes, too =)

For lunch Amelia ate the letter 'C' and a caterpillar (tastes like PB&J =)

 Goodbye 'C'!        'C' you later =)

Before Kindermusik tonight Amelia played in her new bin which is full of beans....she loves to pour!

 Making a shaker!

Before bed (while enjoying a snack) Amelia got out her pom poms...another favorite of hers right now =) She did an awesome job sorting them! If she wasn't sure where the pom pom went she would hold it next to some (already in a bowl) if it matched she dropped it in with the others and if it didn't she would move on to the next one. WOW!

It's raining pom poms before bed! Good Night my little Mia-bug...you must be tired...what a busy day we had =)
