haven't made the most of it to fit in enriching learning opportunities for
the children, or that they've done nothing fun.
Today we did do stuff, so I thought I'd record it and use the list to
motivate me to try even harder tomorrow.
*Bevan went to Shine preschool for 4 hours. He is settling in there during
their quiet new year period, being comfortable in the setting and getting to
know some staff and children.
*Christopher came shopping with me.
*The boys splashed in the paddling pool. Bevan also used the swing and his
bike.
*Bevan and I played with a set of homemade colour flashcards and also his
new numbers up to 20 matching cards that Janeen got him. Bevan is a bit
inconsistant with knowing the names of colours.
*I baked banana muffins with Bevan. He did lots of mashing and stirring and
we watched the muffins rise in the oven.
*Bevan and I looked at a first 1000 words picture book and talked about some
of the items shown.
*I took the boys for a walk round the block and to the school playground. A
policeman said hello to Bevan. Bevan was very confident at the playground,
climbing up, along, through everything. He is using a pole with help.
Christopher went down the slide a couple of times and enjoyed it, and also
crawled around.
*Bevan watched a thomas dvd and also watched some sesame street songs on You
tube (he uses the computer unaided).
*Bevan coloured some orange pictures.
*I played eyespy a colour with Bevan.
*Lots of toilet training trips to the toilet too.
Hmm.. This is actually showing me that I do quite a bit, but also that I
need to think of specific things to do with Christopher. Often Christopher
is busy feeding, eating, napping, or just investigating stuff when Bevan and
I are doing things. Christopher will have more of my time now that Bevan
will be at Shine though. Tomorrow Christopher is coming to a playday at
Playcentre with me while Bevan is at Shine.
Will see how I go tomorrow and if I can beat todays business.
