~Ladybug is currently 38 months old~
I have been forgetting to take pictures of her desk set-up, but I remembered this week! I added some letter fun also, featuring the letter O using our Letter Construction set, our alphabet peg set, our foam floor puzzle alphabet, and letter bean bags. She loved this!
The printable 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 O is not free yet, but it will be once it is posted on Totally Tots!}.
Here are some Letter O and Octopus ideas for you…
She did tons of her octopus stuff, I only have 1 picture to show for it! Here she is coloring…
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!
O week seemed perfect for an Octonauts theme!
I put magnets on the back of the heads and tails matching and had them with our cookie sheet, she loved this!
3 part cards in the mini pocket chart, she did this several times, minus the word matching-I helped or she ignored it for the most part!
Octonauts graphing with dot paint!
I cut, she chose, glued and counted!
Play Dough in the dry erase center!
ABC tracing…
I said, “Who is in the crescent?” she loved yelling out their names!
She wanted to color the insides of the O’s on her maze!
I brought out our ocean sensory bin for the week, she loved it! We haven’t had sensory bins as much, so they are special when they appear!
Fishing for letters…
Play Dough with the boys…
Big brother letting her use his spin art…
We have a herd of caterpillars around here, collected by my sons from the backyard. Pac is keeping his stash in our butterfly house, and they are doing well. Ladybug has her own set in a glass jar and carries the poor things around with her everywhere! Here, she was observing one of them as it played outside of it’s cage.
Only one photo of my bug and her iPad this week, from Instagram, as she was doing her 3 letters before bed. She will ask if she can do just 3 letters before we read books!
