Today we mainly worked on numeral recognition with our sandpaper numbers and the egg carton number work. Since I’ve already shared those works in the past, I thought I would share some fun seasonal ideas other people are doing.
Pumpkin Displaying Age: I’m thinking of using Martha Stewart’s Pumpkin Number Idea to display the boys’ ages. What a cute photo idea!
Spider Tweezing: I saw the ice-cube tray at the dollar store. I think I might add this one to the shelf this week.
Fall Tree Craft: This one looks fun…but messy. Good thing I’m getting better about letting the boys make a mess. ;)
Pom Pom Baby Fun: Wouldn’t this be fun with orange and black pom poms? (Scroll down to the end of the post to see the picture.)
Halloween Sensory Tub: This would be fun for all ages…even babies and toddlers…just make sure they don’t eat any of it!!! :)
Skeleton Puzzle: JR LOVES skeletons. He’d find this one really fun.
Spooky Sorting: Really cute execution!
Egg Carton Pumpkins: I never tire of repurposing egg cartons in a cute way. :)
Creative Pumpkins: No carving necessary. Yay!
And since I hate to end a post without a pic…here’s a photo of JR hamming it up on an old bridge we found a couple of weekends ago. We’re thinking of using it as a backdrop for our next family photos…what do you guys think?











This girl on facebook did a cute thing with her baby. She cut off the top 1/4 of a pumpkin, emptied out everything in there, cut leg holes and sat her baby boy in it and left the 1/4 top of the pumpkin next to him. It was a cute idea! I don’t think Holden can sit up well enough for it though..
