Our alphabet project is rolling forward a little slower than at first, summer is busy! But we are still having a lot of fun and I hope, watching less TV :) For the letter D I pulled out what I thought were dinosaurs for the girls to paint...however Macey informed me that they were turtles! In spite of the letter discrepancy the girls did enjoy painting them and making houses for them in the backyard (Macey's own idea).
For E we did a fun Exercise ABC's that I found on pinterest and dyed eggs, this was the first time I had used plain old food coloring and vinegar and I think they turned out prettier than the usual boxed things we buy at Easter.
We made flower F's and I loved Macey's idea of putting the stem at the bottom of her letter. It is sometimes a challenge for me to let her come up with her own way of doing things (I can be quite the uptight mom!) but it is so rewarding to see her own ideas and enjoy them :)
