Playing this week

We are getting back on track and have been doing lots of fun things lately so I decided now would be a good time to share! Mya is at an awesome age where she loves to learn and is so eager to try anything I have to offer. Here is a look around our home this past week...

I set up a clothes line for Mya in her kitchen. It took us a little bit of practice before she was able to use the clothes pegs and hang things by herself.












I found some awesome printables thanks to the magic of Pinterest. These matching cards are from the blog 1+1+1=1 and can be found here.




We have had these puzzles for a long time but recently she has pulled them out and played with them a couple times a day.







Mya received many new books for her birthday which we have enjoyed on a regular basis. On our shelf currently is ..


The Giving Tree by Shel SilverStein

Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak

The Story of Ferdinand by Munro Leaf

Harold and the Purple Crayon - the Giant Garden

ABC's by Dr. Seuss

Whistle for Willie by Ezra Jack Keats





Our Geoboard is another activity Mya has been asking for lately. I made it for her around a year ago but just recently has she been able to place the elastics on herself and has now quickly become a favorite.





Another activity found through Pinterest. Simple to make and a fun activity to play with that is good for eye-hand coordination.








Mya always loves to play in her kitchen. Here she is stacking her wooden cookies.




Cutting cookies



I printed playdough mats for Mya, but we also like to use dry erase crayons on them too.



Another favorite, our homemade felt board. Mostly we do stories together on the board but occasionaly Mya will play independently with it too.
