TOT-School (a little)

We really did not get in a lot of tot-school this week. B had pneumonia and then a virus. We spent three days at the dr. office and one evening at the hospital. The rest of the week we did a lot of snuggling and loving.

We did manage to do a couple of things right before he got sick and a couple after her get a little better.
Our favorite activity of the week!!
I got this awesome idea from here. I have been doing this with my boys this week. Each day they go on a scavenger hunt to find an envelope with a Bible Verse on it and a small treat tucked inside. Each verse has to do with LOVE so they can begin to understand just how MUCH God LOVES each and everyone of us. The boys have had a blast doing this and they have even learned some Bible Verses this week. Thanks three simple girls for this idea!

B made a stain glass heart to go in our kitchen window. He stuck paper hearts and stickers to contact paper in a heart shape and then added glitter. It turned out very pretty.


B helped us make Valentine candy bouquets for the grandparents. He enjoyed this but loved the sucker that he got to have at the end.



B laced a heart and then decorated it with stickers and then we added his name and he put glitter on it. He is getting very good at lacing.


We managed to makes these snowmen out of water bottles and shredded paper and pom-poms, wiggle eyes, and pipe cleaners. I did not get picts of them making the snowmen but they really enjoyed this activity.

B is beginning to feel better now so hopefully we can do a lot more this week!!

Preschool Week 24- Valentines

For more great preschool ideas visit this site!!!

Our Bible story for this week was Joseph and his coat of many colors. We did this activity that we found at Raising Rock stars. The pattern was found at www.dltk-bible.com. C had a lot of fun making the colorful coat! We talked a lot about Joseph and we talked alot about what it means to be jealous. Our bible verses this week came from the activity/scavenger hunt you will see below. All of our verses were about God's love for us.

I had so many fun Valentine things planned for this week but as luck would have it my little one has been very sick with pneumonia and now a virus. In the last 8 days we have been to the dr. 3 times and the hospital once. So we did not get to all of our Valentine activities. We may work on some over the weekend and if we do I will be sure to post them.




Some of the great Valentine theme books that we read this week!!


We made these cute snowmen out of plastic water bottles, shredded paper, pom-poms, pipe cleaners, flet and wiggle eyes. They were a lot of fun to make.




C laced a big Valentine heart and the decorated it with stickers and glitter.





C sorted Valentine M&M's by color and then graphed them. He had to do some counting, sorting, recognizing numbers, writing numbers, and determine the most and least. He did an awesome job with this. I was very surprised and proud of him. Of course his favorite part was getting to eat the M&M's! I got this graph seet at Confessions of a Homeschooler.


C used cut out hearts and heart stickers and glitter to make a heart sun catcher. Boy did he love the glitter

C loves or maybe I should say is obsessed with Lightning McQueen for the movie Cars. He has all of these Cars Legos and he loves to build with them. He spent a lot of time building with them this week.
