Ready To Take on This Year...
This afternoon we begin a new year of Homeschool Classes. I'm in charge this year and I'm a wee bit on the nervous side! I'm hoping it all goes off smoothly and that the kids will listen well.
This also means that today is officially Peanut's first day of preschool! How the time flies! It was last year this time that we were wondering when she would come home, and here we are one year later with a preschooler. What a year of change. :)  She's learning so quickly and is eager to pick up new things. I started little "boxes" for her yesterday and will continue to add to them the rest of the year. I had seen this idea on another homeschooler's blog and knew it would be something Peanut would love.
We have several old tupperware containers and I put in each, something that is hands on learning for Peanut and something that will occupy her time while I help the older girls.
So far we have a box of counting bears with strings, a box of matching cards, and a box of crayons. I hope to add a box of cornmeal for writing letters with fingers, a box of homemade playdoh, and a box of nuts and bolts. Those are just a couple of the ones I know I'll be doing soon. Stay tuned. As I get ideas, I'll put them up here. :)
Well, off to a new day! Can't wait and still I'm a bundle of nerves too!
