Letter of the week – G
We had a lot of fun learning about 'G' this week! Molly loves music, so we made a 'G' for guitar. I saw the idea on Always Something to Learn.
Molly has been very interested in games lately. We've played Uno Moo more times than I can count! It's great for her matching skills. She kept asking for something else to play, so if you have suggestions for your favorite toddler board game, let me know!

We celebrated Dr. Seuss's birthday with a reading of Green Eggs and Ham.

We then used Molly's great-great-grandmother's recipe to make green egg-shaped sugar cookies. They were yummy! Real green eggs would not have flown with this toddler!

I hosted playgroup this week and involved them in this week's stART project. We read Go Away, Big Green Monster!

The story build's a monster face by talking about the all the different features of the big green monster, so as I read the story the kids glued on each of the parts. The book's pages provide great stencils for creating this craft. I found the idea at Teaching Two.
Molly was excited to show off her big green monster.

I organized a gymnastics playdate in honor of āGā week. Molly and her friends had a great time.

And we couldn't go through 'G' week without playing Daddy's guitar! We have started singing songs before bedtime from The Christian Children's Songbook.

I love all of you G activities!! The monster faces were awesome!
What a great week! I love the green sugar cookies! My son would have loved that more than green eggs too! The Monster faces turned out so cute!
Visiting from StArt – it looks like you had a great G week. My daughter liked Go Away Big Green Monster too even though she is normally not a big fan of scary creatures. And I liked your self-made guitar.
Thanks for linking up to the The Ultimate Alphabet Craft Collection. That G is AMAZING. You are so creative. š
Thanks again,
