Tot School

J-jo is walking! That's the most exciting part of Tot School this week.
As for other things we're working on:

Transferring:
 Mommy counted the three spools as he dropped them into the dish.

Hand-Eye Coordination:
I stuck a dowel into a cardboard box and hot glued it in place.  Then I bought spools and napkin rings at a craft store for him to place on the dowels.  The spools are a bit too challenging and the napkin rings are a little bit too easy.
 
 
Small Spaces:
He still loves to take whatever is on the shelf to his right and drop it into the rolled up mats.

Pincer Grasp:
 Turning pages in a book certainly practices the pincer grasp (see his left hand).

Practical Life:
Helping Mommy make zucchini and carrot pancakes (recipe found at Weelicious).

  2. I love the dowel/spools idea! Very clever, Mama. (Also, we had a great time with our artist-inspired painting this weekend and are looking forward to linking up on Tuesday).
