Mrs. Brandy is the kids Parent As Teacher educater and she came over on Friday. It has been a few months since the kids have seen her due to a bunch of rescheduling issues. She had some issues and I had some to, but she finally came and the kids just adore her. She brought over some blanket sleepers for the girls and Zachery and a new book for Quentin. She also brought two stuffed toys for the boys, so they wouldn't feel left out :) This visit was just her and the girls and they worked on colors and matching while the boys were at school.
This was the girls first time playing in shaving cream, but she asked them to spread the shaving cream out over a tray with various pictures on it. Then she aske them if they could find the dog or the bird and they had to scrape the shaving cream out of the way to find the picture underneathe. They did a pretty good job with it and suprisingly they liked it. She then had them try to match two sides of a shape together to make a triangle or whatever. This worked on matching, colors, and shapes but I am sad to say they didn't do so hot with that. They just wanted to make a tower. She said that that activity was a little over their heads, but since they are advanced she wanted to try it anyway. Obviously they didn't :)
Finally, they read some books and practiced matching with color pegs. The kids all loved the stuff she brought them and as you can see, the girls striped off their clothes and put on the pajamas right then and there. They were wearing blanket sleepers in 70 degree weather and refused to take them off :)Quentin's birthday party is tomorrow at Chck E. Cheeses, so I will have pictures of that tomorrow!
That looks like so much fun! I want to play in some shaving cream! I'm going to remember this activity when Kalia gets older.
