letter Sounds and Recognition
G didn’t go to prek and neither does M so I have tried to make sure we do all the things at home to get them ready for kindergarten. G is doing great at school. We absolutely love her school.…

Garage Organization
AHHH RUN AWAY! but not really. We have a barely 2 car garage. Like it fits 2 sedans. Don’t think about getting more than one car in there if you have an SUV. We, also, have a ton of equipment…
Dot Stickers
I have probably written 10 posts on Dot Stickers at this point but I legit love them. I keep some in my backpack with some paper and crayons. That way I always have a quick activity. Today we went to…

Word Family Legos
G has been super interested in reading lately so I have been trying to come up with lots of ways to help her. For CVC words she seems to do better with putting the last 2 letters together then adding…
