Well, no pictures yet. Please forgive me.
So remember when I wrote that post about being overwhelmed and stopping everything?
Due to a vacation and life, I haven't exactly started everything back up.
Like preschool.
My girls have been begging for it but the idea of all the work that goes into a normal preschool hour has just seemed daunting to me lately.
Finally today I said "To heck with it!" and had the girls practice writing their names and worked with Bronwyn on actually identifying the letters in her name.
She still has no idea which letter is which, but she can identify a movie by almost any vague reference, such as "fortunes, forecasts, lucky charms ...". LOL
Oh my kids.
And then we played with our magnetic alphabet letters and worked on identifying more letters. I feel like it helped Bronwyn, and Aftyn thought it was fun to try and find all the letters of the alphabet and put them in order on her side of the magnet board.
All in all I'd say it was fun and good for all of us.
And made me realize that in my perfect little world where everything happens perfectly (LOL!!!) or at least that is what my brain tries to tell me must happen, there is room for imperfect little preschool lessons where we just have fun and do a few things that are learning related and don't have to seem like so much work.
For me.
