Letter F

 The last couple of weeks have been pretty busy so this is what we did last week for the letter F. I had a busy week with a mother/daughter activity days so some of our crafts/activities we did in the evening and on Saturday and Sunday. There was lots of fun things for the letter F. 

We started the week off with having some fairy toast for breakfast. Fairy toast is toast with butter and the colorful sugar sprinkles. Paige has it quite often with her breakfast or as a snack.
Then she did some finger painting. She started with four colors and ended with lots of different colors because she loved to mix all sorts of different colors together.
 The next day we went outside and picked some flowers and pressed them.
 And she drew a picture of our family.
 Then another day she made a fancy, feather fan. She loves it so much!
 Another day we had a fish day. She painted scales on a fish using celery.
 Then she went "fishing". I printed off different pictures of fish. Half of them started with F and the other half started with the other letters she has already learned. I put a paper clip of each of them and I made a fishing pole with a magnet on the end. She caught them all and separated them into two piles- ones that start with F and the other pile was the fish that started with other letters. She thought this activity was pretty fun and we did it a few times.
 The last day she made this paper bag frog. The frog turned out really cute and Paige wanted the frog's tongue to come out the side and for the picture she wanted her tongue out just like her frog.
 Then we got our pressed flowers and glued them on the letter F.
Even with the craziness of life it is always good to take a few minutes with Paige and see her learn and watch her imagination at work. We didn't do a letter with week because my parents came to bring us our things for our new apartment. We had such a fun time with them that we wanted to focus on that so we will start with the letter G next week.
