I started "preschool" today. It only took about 20 minutes, but we are starting with the letter A and we will move our way through the alphabet. We will see how it goes. It gives me more one on one time with Sadie, so I am excited about it.
Today I taught her how to write the letter A and we practiced with paint. Then, I was planning on making apple prints by cutting an apple in half, dipping it in paint and putting it on paper. That didn't turn out too well, so I cut a stamp out of the apple and we printed the paint on a piece of fabric (since all I have is fabric paint ha ha). Sadie wanted a circle stamp so I carved a circle out of the apple. When it dried I sewed up the sides and let her help me stuff it with polyfil and now she has a fun little pillow that she made.
Now, I just need to come up with more ideas for the rest of the week for letter A. Any suggestions?

In Kindergarten Scott's class cooked through the alphabet. Easy things - I made a list once. If I find it I'll share it with you. The only thing I can remember now is - tiny tacos. It was pretty fun for them. What you did looks really fun for Sadie.
She" going to be a pretty smart little girl....

The preschool I took Andrew to said the vowels are the most difficult to learn, she started with D, M,& S I think. I have a list if you want it. She did a lot with Nursery Rhymes. I have an excellent book on that if you want it & they had a color of the month...
