We had a fun first day today! At breakfast we listened to Chicka, Chicka, Boom, boom on cassette as this is our alphabet overview week. After breakfast I got the boys in the stroller and thea in the wrap and went for a walk. What a difference it makes in my day to get out and get some exercise in the morning! My spirits are lifted and I have so much more energy. It's only 20 minutes, but makes a big difference! After a run to the PO and commisary we came home to start our preschool fun. We read 3 alphabet books, (chicka, chicka, boom, boom, upside down alphabet, and hawaiian alphabet) and then the boys each colored a letter page. Ashton an A and Landon an L. By the end of the week they'll have colored their whole name. Ashton drew a great A on his paper that I put into his portfolio. Afterwards I hid letters on sheets of paper around their room. They had a great time searching for the letters. Then we put the letters on the train table and found objects that started with that letter and put it on top of the letter. The grand finally was an alphabet Seasame Street video. Not a lot of prep, but a lot of fun. I worked with Landon on keeping the crayon/marker on the paper and he really seemed to understand. He loved having me next to him while he colored.
