Preschool at home

I take my stay-at-home mom gig quite seriously so I do my best to stay on top of teaching William all I can. I recently started having him sort beans by color and size and then counting them. You would not believe how much enjoyment he gets out of it. He yells out each color and then places it in the correct group. Then he pretends to be me and says "Now count the beans".

Of course I would never leave him unattended for long with the beans~ Not that he would put them in his mouth but he would probably try to throw them all over the place or even at the dog. I think I am going to make a chart of each type of bean by gluing them in groups to help avoid a lot of mess. Of course I am sure he will figure out how to peel them off :)

  2. I love the idea of counting and sorting the beans - how fun, and you don't even have to leave home to do it. William looks like he is having big fun!

    Will definitely be trying this out ONCE Chase is completely over his oral stage (cuz right now, even at 2, everything still goes in his mouth)
