We are on day 3 of Advent, as we start Advent on the 1st Sunday of Advent, not on December 1st. These posts may not be of interest to anyone, but I need a record of what I am doing so I will remember what worked and didn’t work when I plan next year’s Advent.
Today’s activity card was Make Hot Apple Cider. I just simmered apple juice with some cinnamon sticks and cloves. 
We also did a size sorting Christmas Tree. I saw this activity on Making Learning Fun. However, I am without a printer and thought it would look better on green construction paper anyway, so I just cut out my own ovaloid shapes. Bear never wants to do the size sorting activities I set out for her, so I was delighted when she caught on right away and did the whole thing herself. I then gave her dot stickers to decorate her tree. I think that must have been her favorite part. We counted all the dots as she placed them.
Thanks for linking up! I'm excited to try that activity with B! Good idea to decorate with stickers.
ReplyDeleteJuliet never wants to do the size-sorting things either...maybe this cute tree will convince her.
ReplyDeleteAnna is not a big fan of size sorting either. I'll see if she might be interested in this - thanks for the suggestion!
ReplyDeleteI want to do a size sorting activity as one of our Christmas math activities. I will link back to you.
ReplyDeleteAnother great idea and what a beautiful tree! :-)
ReplyDeleteI love that tree, I will have to borrow that for my preschool class.
