Tot School ~ Letter M

~Ladybug is currently 37.5 months old~

The items are all available here on the Animal ABCs webpage. {files are released for free when they are posted on the Totally Tots blog for the ABC feature, letter M is not free yet, but it will be once it is posted on Totally Tots!}.

Here are some Letter M and Mouse ideas for you…

 

She requested finger paint again…

After painting, she requested glitter…

Then she asked for colored paint…

 

She worked with me to make the letter craft, which is basically an open ended project that you can do whatever you want with!  This week I gave her big and little Mm stamps, and she LOVED stamping with me-we took turns!

She tried to cut her letter out by herself!  She eventually gave it to me to finish, but I was thrilled with her determination and desire!

She glues everything by herself now, however she wants!

Special Note: Please read my post about Following the Child’s Lead if you have a tot and need info about this.  All tots are different and what Ladybug is doing may not be appropriate for your child, even if s/he is the same age!

In honor of M is for Mouse week, I made her a Mickey Mouse Printable Pack! I gathered all of her Mickey toys & books and brought them to the schoolroom too!  Notice the kitty hidden in the picture.   Silly Stella.

She loved the Mickey Mouse stuff and dove right in and started coloring as soon as she found her notebook! {her purple tray is here, but get it at Michaels if you can, it’s only 4.99 or less with a coupon!}

She loves the graphing game and totally gets it now!

She wanted to color her shapes…

Working on the letter maze…

Tracing…

Tracing letters…

Stacking and nesting cylinders…

She told me the skinny ones were her candles and that I needed to sing Happy Birthday to her, so I did.

She played with Perfection multiple times {with the timer off, it scares her!}…

She used the cards from our Design and Drill and laid the screws upside down to make the patterns on the cards.  I was amazed with her patience, she did this a few different times!

Playing with the marble tracks {these are called Frigits, I couldn’t find the set we have on Amazon} her brothers made for her…

Sorting gems in our Mancala game…

We had a few hot days and enjoyed our {last-summer, popped and a bit dirty} pool! She LOVES to swim and could have cared less about the pool imperfections or the chilly water!

Remember the popsicle she snagged from her biggest brother? She hit her Daddy up too and got over half of his!  Little stinker!

Here she was playing Alpha Tots-one of our all time favorites.
