crafts
Ethan and Rachel have entered a new stage in life where they love having craft time every day. Especially Rachel. She will sit and do a craft for more than an hour. Ethan has to change up what he's doing every 30 minutes or so, or he's bored and causing trouble. Last week they were able to play with one of Ethan's birthday presents from his good friend Duncan. It was a Diego paint and color set and they had a blast!

My kids LOVE craft time, too. I'd love to hear about any great ideas or crafts you guys do to add some variety.
They just finished learning all the sounds of the letters in the alphabet, so today we got magazines and we found pictures to go with each letter, cut it out and glued them onto construction paper, writing the capital letter for each picture above the picture. Ethan totally got it and did most of it on his own, Rachel did not. She knows all the sounds of her letters, but didn't quite connect finding the pictures and putting 2 and 2 together. :)
Next week we're going to do paper mache. I know they'll love that.
Thanks for the link, Janee! I'll check that out.
