Montessori Monday

 Since it was Christmas week, we didn't do much, but Bear did choose her skeleton puzzle (printed from here).  There's a little picture of what it should look like put together taped to the inside of the box so she can self-check.

 Short bead chains.  These teach the squares of numbers and also skip counting.
 We played a telling time game with a bit of active play thrown in.
I set up a time on the clock and she had to tell me the time, then while I changed the hands to a new time, she slid down her slide once.  At the bottom of the slide, she had to look at the new time and tell it to me.

 Some rice sensory time.  I often throw together some sensory bowl for the kids to play in while I cook.

  1. Great activities. Anna has a skeleton puzzle too, but she doesn't want to do it - she is afraid of a skull.
