I gathered many new materials for Bubba this week! Some were a hit!
I did some geoboard work with the girls and Bubba just loved putting rubber bands all over his board. Fun!
Alex impressed us all by matching his letters to the name plates I made for his sisters a couple years ago.
He really liked this activity. He wants me to make him more cards. I also need to make more bottle caps!
Cars shapes and color matching…3 part cards
poster center with Velcro to match up the pieces
…and marbles on no slip bath shapes
Alex really loved practicing with these beginner chopsticks. He picked up pipe cleaners and sorted them by color. He kept going back to this again and again.
I finally found all the pieces to this Lauri shape and color sorter.
Stacking pegs with sister Tori
Alex asked to sort his snack in his fishy plate. nuts, Goldfish crackers, and M&Ms went into three different spaces. Smart guy!
Alex was so excited to dig in to some homegrown watermelon!
A new favorite: pinning shapes
Alex still loves vacuuming and demands to do it whenever someone pulls out the vacuum.
And just like Daddy took the T-Bird away, Mama took the vacuum away and we got pouty face!
An old favorite: nesting blocks. These things are barely held together with packing tape!
Alex asked to try our spelling boards and he was really good at it with a little help.
Measuring rice. He was soooo good at keeping it in the bin.
Over the week, Alex demolished this styrofoam board with hammering in golf tees.
I saw this on Pinterest. Flipping “pancakes.” He demanded a plate for these. So cute.
Great activities, Jennifer! Thanks so much for linking up with Montessori Monday. I featured your post at the Living Montessori Now Facebook page and pinned your name cards photo to my Kids’ Family Tree Activities at http://pinterest.com/debchitwood/kids-family-tree-activities/
