First off,
we have a new center piece
for our table,
Celery!
Very handy, just grab and go.
:::::
The other day, our son Todd, texted me
asking for some help.
He wanted some ideas for
"Table Time" for Trey, my grandson.
I would have Table Time with Trey,
when I babysat him.
It started out as a learning time
on how to sit and learn.
Mostly, how to sit still for
a period of time, (30 minutes or so).
Todd has continued this activity with Trey!
So, I jumped at the chance to help Todd.
I found these matching games
and they looked like fun.
My sources:
Click here for flowers
Click here for Cat In The Hat
I printed off two of the matching, flower games.
One on computer paper and the other
on a more study paper.
I then mounted the computer paper onto
black construction paper.
Contact paper was used to wrap it for
more durable feel.
This is my method of wrapping.
I cut the corners on a diagonal, after placing
the game face down on the sticky side,
Then I folded each side.
The "cards" were then cut out.
This is the Cat In The Hat matching game.
You can flip the board over for another
set of hats, to find.
Sure do miss this little guy!
He has grown so much since
we last saw him.
Trey has advanced way past the sitting and
is more onto learning!
is more onto learning!

Looks like so much fun and such great pre-going-to-school learning!
ReplyDeleteThat is precious and yes, look how big he is. Great verse, I just read that same verse this week. You did a great job.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good idea. The cat and the hat game.
ReplyDeleteCelery is a good centerpiece, if it does not vanish. LOL
That's a great idea for a yummy centerpiece. I may borrow it.
ReplyDeleteClever learning ideas. I thought you would just draw lines to match things but this is better because you can do it over and over.
What a great idea, to teach children at a young age to sit and learn! I love your creative way of approaching it, and that cup of celery looks pretty awesome too :)
ReplyDeleteOh my he has gotten so big! I love your table time ideas!
ReplyDeleteThis is heartwarming, Christine. Your son is a good daddy who has a wonderful mom. Trey is a blessed little boy. Celery is very good for you! Eat up, I say! LOL :) Hugs, Nancy
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! We have two grandsons and this would be excellent for them!
