Rock and pocket charts

Freckle Foot is on the landing in our stairwell. She has wanted to play with her "rocks" so I put her on the landing because they are choking hazards for Little Loaf.  There is a gate that you can't see at the bottom of the stairs. Just to keep her interested in hanging out there I put up the red pocket chart that I got from Target. The pocket chart is really flimsy I would love to get one from Lakeshore Learning. The color cards she is playing with are from Homeschool Creations. This kept her entertained for a while. Then she decided she wanted to throw the "rocks" at the wall. We found a new activity after we cleaned up.

Sticks and Rice Again?

Freckle Foot loves her sticks. I made the quilt out of my Dad's old work shirts and a few of the squares are pockets. She loves to hide things in the pockets. Today it was her holding spot for her sticks.



Rice, rice, rice this kid loves rice. Grandma bought her some colored glass beads, which we know Freckle Foot would love. I cringe when she plays with them because they are the perfect choking hazards for Little Loaf. He is often confined to his high chair when she plays with them. Anyways we hid the beads in the rice then put them in matching cups. This was a great way to work on colors and counting. Thanks Grandma.

Sorting Activities

Freckle Foot has been enjoying sorting activities. I found this bank deposit bag while cleaning out my father's office. She has been having hours of fun transferring colored pom poms from the bag to different containers.
