Book Reading - Mommy? by Maurice Sendak

Did really well, building confidence on oral reading, only two words in the book, "Mommy?" and "Baby!"

The artwork also helps.

We also went and picked up a bike trailer from a very nice FreeCycler. Looking forward to getting it cleaned up!

New Use for Shape Sorters

Trace the shapes onto paper, and have your child match the shapes up with the outlines on the paper. We have more than one set, but the second set is only partial. Here are some pics.

This helps with pre-reading skills, eye-hand coordination, fine motor development, and shape and color recognition.
