Tot School age 27 months
I wanted this week to have a farm theme, but it didn’t quite work out that way.
Sabrina had a lot of fun drawing on the chalkboard.
We read a lot of books this week.
Sabrina playing with a mini connect four.
We had a good time a MLK Park. Sabrina loves to eat; she stole a roll from a baby. Ooops.
Although she has no idea how to pedal Sabrina loves her Barbie trike.
She enjoyed putting pennies into a piggy bank.
She enjoyed story-time at the library.
P.E. at McDonald’s Playplace- how fun is that?
We met the homeschool group at Acacia Park again this week.
I asked Sabrina to point out the different animals using her lacing cards.
Putting straws in a parmesan cheese container kept her busy while I got supper ready. (Thanks for the idea, Carisa!)

Alex school
Alex is trying to catch bubbles at MLK Park. If you look closely you’ll see a bubble in the upper left-hand corner.
Alex rode his bike in the courtyard.
Alex enjoyed storytime at the library.
P.E. at a McDonald’s Play Place.
Alex read his first chapter books. He claimed it was too long, but when I encouraged him, he read two in one sitting.
We stopped at the library to get some books on Missouri for his project. Another story-time was going on, Alex talked me into staying. (I do NOT recommend tennis balls and parachutes.) This story-time had a craft time too.
Alex is looking over his project one last time before giving his Oral report at the homeschool group. This was Alex's first project like this and his first oral report. He did very well.
Our homeschool group met at the park again this week.

Homeschool Group at Acacia Park
We met the homeschool group at Acacia Park.
Alex participated in a state project; his state was Missouri. He was one of only a few of the kids who actually did an oral report. I think he did great for his first time doing this kind of project.(Unfortunately, the wind made hearing him on video impossible.)

Sabrina age 27 months
This week has been super busy. We had revival at church and several outings.
Sabrina and Alex gathered pinecones to take to Gilcrease Animal Sanctuary for the birds. The kids had a lot of fun with this. It was like an egg hunt as they raced to get the pinecones. They gathered a whole shopping bag of pinecones.
Gilcrease Animal Sanctuary is a great place. The kids got to see and pet animals they normally wouldn’t such as: donkeys, a miniature horse, and goats. They also had llamas, a mule deer, ducks, a turkey, emus, and lots of other birds.
Sabrina did several farm related puzzles this week.
The kids enjoyed playing with the Thomas the Tank Engine train set at Barnes and Nobles. Sabrina also pointed out the princess books (of course).
After story-time we spent time playing with the puzzles in the library. In fact, we had to leave story-time early because Sabrina kept stealing another girl’s crackers. The girl and her mom were sharing, but Sabrina was leaving crumbs everywhere so after about the fourth cracker I took her out.
Imaginations soared at the quarter machines outside of Food 4 Less.
Sabrina decorated hearts with markers and stickers for the Valentine’s Party.
Sabrina really enjoys her Bright Baby First 100 Words book she got from her grandparents for Valentine’s Day. I asked her to find the teddy bear… and she got more right than I thought she knew.
We had a homeschool group Valentine’s Party at a park. Sabrina kept giving her hearts to the same people. One lady got about 5 of them. It was funny. She had a lot of fun on the play ground equipment too.
Sabrina played with her Fisher Price farm set. I asked her to find the animals. The only one she had trouble with was the donkey.

Alex School
This week has been very busy. We had revival at church, company, and several outings.
Alex and Sabrina gathered pinecones to take to Gilcrease Animal Sanctuary for the birds. The kids had a lot of fun with this. We talked about how we can help others without using money. They gathered a whole shopping bag of pinecones.

The kids enjoyed playing with the Thomas the Tank Engine train set at Barnes and Nobles. (It’s funny how even though he’s “too old for Thomas,” he always runs straight to this train table.)
After story-time we spent time playing with the puzzles in the library.
Imaginations soared at the quarter machines outside of Food 4 Less.
Alex worked did work in Spectrum Math and The Complete Book of Animals workbook (that he got for Valentine’s Day from his grandparents).
Alex got to help choose the fish and help set up the tank. He named several of the fish; the plecostomus is Mr. Vacuum and the beta is Mr. Feisty.
Alex and I played several rounds of his All Around Town game which is one of his favorites.
We met the homeschool group at the park for a potluck and Valentine’s Day Party. Alex was super excited and loved passing out Valentines. He also made several new friends and spent most of the time with them.
