We've Got Mail
Riley loves to do mail and play post office. Today he had the fun idea to make mailboxes for everyone in our house and hang them by their doors. So we took some old Kleenex boxes, covered them with foam, added red flags with brads and decorated them up. We have all had a great time sending mail to each other - and to make it even better we are writing them out like real envelopes using our full names (not addresses yet) so Riley is getting a lot of practice writing his last name. I drew over the last names in the photos so they are a bit odd looking, but you'll get the idea. Cabot had fun too - mostly dumping out foam stickers all over the living room. (=

Here's how it works!
Grab a child in your life and let them dictate what you all will do. Work how you work so they can see what you do and how you do it. If it's on the computer, give them the mouse to color something in or if your medium of choice is paint, have them paint. Just be creative!! You can see what I do with one of my styles here. Enjoy your time and just have fun! Participation is open to all.
