We started up a weekly playschool with a few of Tess' friends: Danielle James, Stephanie Christensen and Cade Austin. Last week was the first time we had school at our house. (Cade was absent, so it was an all-girls' school that day.)
We are learning about fall and we talked a lot about squirrels. We went on a fall scavenger hunt and made leaf rubbings.
We made Jumpy Squirrel puppets and watched squirrels play in our backyard trees. For snack time, the girls had fun making a Squirrel Snack which they shared with their puppets.
I'm pretty sure Danielle's puppet ate more nuts than she did.
It's a good experience for Tess to have to share her toys and learn to bend her sometimes strong will to accommodate the wishes of others. She's learning.
School's at our house again this week. I'm doubling up before baby gets here. This week it's Pumpkin Time!

Very cute. And it's a whole nother' ball game when other kids are at her house, in her territory and she has to share. It's so good for her. Will make adding a sibling a bit easier. :)
Sounds fun! You're a good mommy (and choo-choo).
