Saw this idea on pinterest: Ruth is doing rhyming words. On the paper are word endings like "op" and "at" and she creates words with the magnets. Will does a version where he just matches the magnets to the letters on the paper for letter recognition. I love Ruth made the word "eat" with the ending "at" instead of just doing cat, bat, rat!
We made some ornaments to work on fine motor skills
ABC mouse. I'm honestly not sure if it's worth the cost, especially since Ruth is already reading. But she loves it and she's learning computer skills if nothing else.
Claire getting some sensory bucket time. This was her first time and she LOVED it
And Will is doing some learning Apps, there are some amazing ones out there that only cost a few bucks!
Pretty soon he saw what Claire was doing and ditched the tablet.
And then personal activities turned into one big group activity!
And we did some water painting and went to story time at the library and stocked up on another weeks worth of books.
In all honesty this is an ideal day and they don't happen every day. I have to get to the gym occasionally, and there are always errands to run so we don't always get to spend so much time doing wonderful learning activities. But they are happening a lot more frequently and they are all learning at their own level and pace.
