A is for Apple/B is for Banana

School has officially started and Sarah Anne LOVES it and wants to do it all day long.  It was definitely a highlight when we were watching tv and on a commercial there was an A and she was like LOOK MAMA AN A!!!  After teaching 3 years and not always having success with every kid, it is very refreshing to have my baby get it right away!  We have successfully completed A and B and she can identify them both very well.  She now looks for the letters everywhere and gets so excited about learning.  I am thankful that I have the activities prepared too, because with Baby Becca it keeps us from watching tv all day long!  We take about 3 days full of activities everyday.  So here are some of our A/B activities:

Doing arm exercises

We LOVE exercising our arms that start with A

Coloring the "Aa" book

Meet my Alligator

Then on to B for baking banana bread

Yummy Banana Bread

Then we made a butterfly with black beans 

The butterfly

Capital and lowercase b's made with bears.

And our scrapbook pages where we go through the newspaper/ads to find things that start with that letter.

B stands for Baby Becca (who is now focusing on things, like her monkey in this picture)
