Keeping busy in-between themes!

...which extended into some free painting with Little M&M!
Easel - Matching Activities
Sweet E requested some easel activities one day. So she matched up some upper/lowercase letters a couple times.
Then for something new, we matched up words that rhyme!
Feed the Shark Game
Sweet E pulled this math game out of my closet, from way back during our Beach/Ocean theme in October! She loves these types of activities.
Geoboard Free Play
I pulled out our old geoboard, which I don't think Sweet E had played with before. And I offered some templates (free printable from Crafty Mummy) for inspiration. She loved building shapes, and even made a snowflake on her own, without a template!
Dotting Syllables
Re-enforcing a new concept she just learned at preschool (she goes two days each week) with this free printable from This Reading Mama. We did three pages of these, and it definitely clicked!
Learning Notebook - Number Review
I wanted to revisit the teen numbers one day, so I created a quick activity in her notebook. She needed to trace the number, and plunk 14 stickers in there. Something quick and fun!
Painting Suncatchers
This activity was Sweet E's idea. Little M&M recently cleaned his room and found these suncatchers, which he didn't want anymore. So Sweet E decided to spend some time painting them. What a sweet, relaxing way to spend the afternoon, and so pretty!
