Today we got out some new "school" items, it's really not school...just a play that is more structured and new! I have been working to put together some Montessori centers so that the boys could have some more structured play on their rugs. I love this website-www.1plus1plus1equals1.com! It gave me a lot of ideas!
Here's what we were doing today!
We affectionately call this one spooning, it is sorting pastel colored pompons with a large spoon--
This one is Silas' favorite!
I bought all of the pompons, the little bowls, the spoon, and the silver trays at the Dollar Tree.

This one is just moving one pompon over at a time into a different bowl--they are just learning to use their fingers in a new way. I have two different pairs of tongs and plan to get a smaller, easier pair...this one is harder for them. But, they loved trying! The only thing I had to buy for this one is the pompons...everything else is from my kitchen.
This is our spaghetti sorting...putting the spaghetti into the small holes of a Parmesan cheese shaker and salt and pepper shakers that I also purchased at the Dollar Tree. I found some great cutting pages on a Montessori website--I plan on putting them on a tray for tomorrow!
Our Easter memory verse this year is Matthew 28:6--"He is not here; He has risen, just as he said..." Hopefully they'll have it memorized by Easter morning! Have a blessed week!
