Easter Monday

Christ is risen from the dead trampling down death by death and upon those in the tombs bestowing life. We are enjoying the Pascal season.

Science day. Today for preschool we read about tapirs and gorillas and talked about what they eat. We did a project from bathtub science and learned about cohesion "water is sticky." We also did our Spanish rhymes and counting and quiet time. We poked holes in the cup watered the carrot seeds she planted at the zoo.

We are most of the way through the first Laura Ingalls Wilder book. Claire loves it. It is doing wonders for her attention span. She listens so quietly. Thank you Katie for the suggestion.

Christ is truly risen! Poppa watered his carrot seeds too, Claire. Wow! Laura Ingals Wilder! Would that be Little House in the Big Woods? Does that bring back memories, Mark? Did you get a box in the mail from Oklahoma yet? Love & hugs, Nanna

Wow, that seems very ambitious for one so young. I am so pleased that she can listen attentively to such a fun book. You might want to check out some recipes from the series here: http://www.littlehousebooks.com/
