School

We did some crafts and coloring every day for the first part of the summer. Here my daughter is coloring with our neighbors little girl. It was an effort to keep them up on what they learned from their varying school year. You think my daughter was a little young for school and you are right. However she has some speech issues and so we were going to a talking time program through the school district and were working on letters. In order to keep her up on her sounds I worked with my neighbor and we came up with something everyday for 2 months to help with reading and sounds. By about August we got a little lazy. But it was nice to know that when we tested my daughter recently with her sounds since Talking Time with the school year is starting up again that she had retained the sounds and I would like to believe that the time my neighbor and I took this summer had a lot to do with it.
I added this picture of my little guy because while we had arts and crafts he wanted to be involved to and so he got a snack during this time. Occasionally I would let him color to, closely monitored so he wouldn't eat the crayons.
