Reflecting on the Week

I thought I would post an update about how our week has gone. It's been an enjoyable week learning about creation and the letter "A" at our house. The girls are both doing really well. Brina of course understands the concepts more than her sister. Brina already knows her letters though. Siriana says that the letter name is "B" but she knows without a doubt that it says "A-A-Adam!" Lol! The cute little finger play for the first week is adorable. It goes through different animals that God created and tells that he created people. My girls both love it.

Another thing that both girls really enjoy is the music that goes along with the program. I hesitated to buy it at first, but they were dancing and singing away. I'm so glad I bought the CD set. It was definitely $13 well spent.

To learn about the letter "A" this week, we have made a big letter A on the floor with masking tape. The girls walked their stuffed animals/dolls along the letter.We have talked about words that begin with the letter A: apple, astronaut, ant...Since my girls love to paint, we also dot painted an apple picture yesterday. Pictures will be at the end of the post. To end off our evening last night, we blew bubbles, played with sidewalk chalk, and read about six bedtime stories. I love spending this quality time with my girls and thankful for the direction I have with Heart of Dakota's program.

This is Brina's apple.
This is Siri's apple.

 Overall, we've had a great week. I wish I would have gotten some outdoor pictures. I will try to do that today though. Thanks to everyone that takes a look!
