D is for doctor

Very cute printables here: http://homeschoolcreations.blogspot.com/2011/01/doctor-and-nurses-preschool-pack.html

N is for numbers

Two great books to introduce numbers: "Bean Thirteen" by Matthew McElligott and "Missing Math" by Loreen Leedy. We talked about how great numbers are and why we need them/how we use them. Then we make these homemade fingerpaints from

http://www.pbs.org/parents/earlymath/act_p_paint.html and did some color by numbers.



Snack: nachos or nuts



Note to self: The fingerpaints need lots of time to cool down and were pretty messy but fun.

N is for Nest

Great Books about nests:
Albert by Donna Jo Napoli

The Best Nest by PD Eastman

The Perfect Nest by Catherine Friend

There is a nest on your head by Mo Willems

We made our own little nest out of blankets and pillows and then read our books. Then we made no bake cookies for our nests and put pink Whoppers in the center for eggs.
