Preschool week 5

preschool sorta took a hiatus last week. but we had some good weather and a few trips out of the house so it wasn't really needed either.

This week we're playing catch-up.

E is for Egg

I've been saving my eggshells for about a week now, washed them out and let them dry. Today I gave them to Des and told him to go for it. And he did. And he loved it. I really hope he doesn't translate this activity into breaking the whole eggs we have in the fridge (and counter. Our chickens are egg-laying machines with this nice weather. Eggs anyone? Farm fresh so you don't have to refrigerate.)
After he was all done crushing them, I had him wash his hands well, which turned into "I wanna wash my hands all by myself and you leave, mommy." Which is Des for, "I wanna play in the kitchen sink unobserved." But luckily, we're cool with that so he was happy.
We also played a game of "find the letter E" where I cut out some letter E's and hid them around the living room. 
And now I've shoved him outside for some quality time with nature. So far he's stolen his neighbor buddy's bike and come back to yell, "MOMMA! MOMMA! MOMMA!" through the front door.  Good times.
