New Game

It's sometimes hard to come up with things to keep Kennedy entertained during the day. Don't get me wrong, she's a great self-entertainer, and can play for hours with her Barbies--just like I did when I was little. But she always knows when Ansley is napping and immediately wants mommy all to herself to play together. I saw this idea in my Parenting magazine and decided to try it. I wrote all the letters and numbers 1-9 on paper plates and we place them in a circle around the family room. Then we put on princess music and had to walk around the plates until the music stopped. When it stopped we had to pick up the plate we were next to and tell the letter on the plate. She knows all the numbers, but we still need work on identifying the letters. She had a lot of fun though, and I felt good knowing she was learning at the same time! Here are some pictures from our new game that we may make a point of playing everyday!
