What are my children are in the bathtub with their clothes on, reading books to their teddy's? Just one of the fun ideas the preschool gave us to prevent the "summer slide". Each day of the work week they have a cute little thing to do.
Other summer updates:
Kobe has completed reading his 12 phonics books, he's doing so great sounding out words, and remembering a lot of them. Kobe also just completed swimming lessons in which he made major improvements, jumping off the diving board, swimming on his own, and even tipping the canoe. He's also been taking care of his little brother now that they are sharing a room, taking him potty when they wake up, getting his teddy bear, calling him buddy. He's growing into a big boy.
Brennan is also enjoying the summer, working on writing the letter B for his name (it will be a lot different having one of the youngest preschoolers vs the oldest), he is working on cutting with sissors, and learning the last few letters of the alphabet. He already knows his shapes, colors, and numbers. Didn't we learn this stuff in kindergarten? He also loves to copy whatever Kobe does, which of course drives Kobe crazy!
We are all looking forward to getting away next week, daddy is even leaving his blackberry at home!
