Some Recent Activities

Yesterday, when I went to pick Jacob up from Preschool, his teacher, Roberta, mentioned that Jacob and Walter made their own ABC books. The pair sat down at the writing station and set to work creating these books. They looked at the laminated alphabet (upper and lowercase) and sat for a very long time creating their books. This was their choice and teachers were impressed at their work and choice of how they would spend their "choice time." The book is excellent! I will have to add more pictures. And to think that these two have another whole year before they start Kindergarten!

Over the weekend, Jacob had been working on his "build a face" books and wanted me to take a picture of him next to his creations. What a cutie!

When Jacob was home from school last Thursday, I let him pick out a dessert to make from a M&M cookbook. He chose Domino Brownies. We made brownies with a box mix (they suggested to make from scratch) and they came out fluffier than if we did them by scratch. I didn't think that we could frost them as pictured, but Jacob proved me wrong. I though he was just going to frost and top with M&M's (or "yummy yumms" as he calls them, but this is what he came up with. :)
