Tot School

Tot School is a time each day(or several times each day) that I spend interacting with my kids and exposing them to early learning skills. To find out more about Tot School, visit Carisa over at 1+1+1=1 (you can click the button at the top of this post to visist her page).

Little Bean is 45 months and Miss O is 31 months old.

This week in Tot School:

Little Bean played this counting game I made for him:

He also spent some time cutting, which is really fun and challenging for him:

He also made up some stories using our felt board, which is always a favorite:

And built a giant block tower:

He did this animal matching game:

Miss O spent some time doing puzzles, like this fishing game puzzle:

She also tried her hand at the animal matching game:

Since Little Bean and Miss O are so close in age, there were a number of activities that they chose to do together:

Here they are playing with magnets on our magnet board:

And here they were reading together:

This Mystery Bag puzzle was a favorite this week. You set up the puzzle tiles and then reach in a cloth bag and feel for the correct pieces. Here they are playing this game together:


Our Tinker Toys always end up becoming interesting inventions:


And here they are stringing Unifix cubes:

Digging through rice for buried treasure (Daddy made this one up!):

So that was our week. We had a great time playing and learning together this week, and we definitely kept busy.
