SCHOOLWORK!

This is Syd's new favorite thing to do! Once she turned 3 we decided to do preschool stuff and boy howdy, she LOVES it! She will go for 2 hours if I will! We are now working on recognizing lowecase letters and the sounds that letters make. We also working on some concrete math stuff, which has been harder. We try to do crafty stuff everyday, too. Here is a picture of the playdoh and toothpick sculpture we made. Following that is the process of making new crayons from old ones, which I got off of a homeschooling blog.



Syd is so proud of Bobby B. She colored him herself.


Sorting the broken crayons with Gigi. We got them from church and will give all but a few back to the Acorn Club so they can be used during Sunday School.


Put the crayons into the FOIL cupcake holders, unless you want crayon all over your tin.


Put in the oven for 11 mins at 250 degrees. Let cool for 10 minutes before removing from tin. Leave in the cupcake foils for at least 6 hours, if not overnight. Syd was very impressed by how pretty the finished product was.
