Mural

The kids are making a mural today....we actually do this a lot. They love working together and getting ideas from each other as to what to draw and paint. The kids draw their own pictures to paint :) I love sharpies!! And watercolor.....

Around the room.....

Most the time, hanging out on the table is not encouraged.....but lil Hailey sat up here for a good 40 minutes playing with blocks. She was so content that we didn't bother her. As soon as she spotted me it was as if she was saying, haha....look at me!!! Jake is working on writing and making valentine buddies :)
TT and Alex are strengthening their hand muscles, eye hand coordination, and matching :)

Color Bugs

Matching color bugs to the correct color tape strips......the older kids were making long patterns. 

Old school adding machine....

We have this very cool, old school adding machine. The kids love pressing all the numbers and clearing it. Evan added a step stool and hat to contribute to the coolness :) 

Chair on wheels

Nate never ceases to amaze me. He thought of a way to make the chair move easier! Well done Nate!!!

Happy Birthday!!!!

'Projects'

The boys LOVE 'projects'. They ask everyday..."what project are we doing today?" Sometimes I put specific things out, like the paint chips, but mostly I say, "what would you like to do?" Lately they want to cut!!! .... And tape. They love tape :)

Paint chip cutting.....

I saw the idea of cutting paint chips and had to head to Home Depot! The kids really liked it and are now asking for different colors....Home Depot is on the list for this weekend....I might have to hit a few stores!

It's been awhile!.....

It's been awhile since I have posted. A lot has been going on. Finally calm, so hopefully I'll post more :)
We brought the airplane down from blueberry....they love it!
Using some good skills to climb over the the wall on the climber.
