Color Matching Game

I have found some great activities to keep Sage occupied from this website:  http://www.confessionsofahomeschooler.com.  There are some great tips, ideas, and lots of fun and educational printables.   This latest activity I found was the Paint Brush Color Matching game.  Sage loves it!   I pulled it out on yesterday morning and she played with it over and over again.  She got mad when I put it away.  I decided we needed to get the paintbrushes laminated or it wouldn't survive in our house for long. 

Princess Time

Saturday night Sage was going through all her princess clothes.  She decided on this skirt/shirt combo.  She was really into the jewels around the neck on the shirt!  She had to wear a necklace, slippers and get her wand out too!   Here is our beautiful princess!

Rain Boots

Saturday morning Reese was outside working in the backyard.  It had rained all Friday night so it was pretty wet out there.  What better time to throw on Sage's rain boots and go help distract Daddy!   Thanks Nana & Papa for the rain boots!

I asked for a smile and this is what I got!

Purple!

This past week we worked on the letter "D" and lots of colors.  Sage knows all her colors and we had fun doing activities for each color.  One of her favorite activities was the sensory bin I put together for the color purple.  I used to have packing peanuts in the sensory bin container but just switched over to rice.  She wasn't to sure of the rice to start and would get this funny look on her face when she touched it.  She did get used to the rice - but it took a little while. 

Easter Treats!

I love to bake and make sweet treats for all holidays!   This Easter I made Birds Nests - they turned out great.  We went to Kelly & Jason's for Easter dinner, thanks for including us.  It was great to spend Easter with them and their family.   I brought these and they were a hit! 

Basketball Hoop

The Easter Bunny brought Sage a basketball hoop - she saw it first thing Sunday morning.  It was set up in the corner of our room, she saw it and immediately started shooting hoops!  I see many hours of playing basketball in our future!

She was so excited - this was the best picture I could get.

Giant Lollipop!

Yesterday Sage was asking for a taste of her GIANT Lollipop from Easter.  I got it out and she enjoyed it.  Hard for her to get a good taste of it when the lollipop is as big as her head!

Jelly Bean Surprise!

The night before Easter we planted some special Jelly Beans.  The next morning we went out and the special Jelly Beans had grown into a GIANT Lollipop!   Sage and Natalie had fun planting the Jelly Beans with Reese.  I have been told this only works the night before Easter!

 

She was asking Reese to open it!

Easter Basket

The Easter Bunny hid Sage's Easter Basket and it took her a little while to find it.  She was very excited when she found it hidden by the wine cabinet!   She had lots of fun going through her basket to see what the Easter Bunny had brought her.  She got two necklaces, bunny ears, Easter stickers, M&M's, a chocolate bunny, a plush bunny, and lots more chocolate!
