What to do with my toddler while Bella is doing school.....


Edible Finger Paints! I got this recipe from a mom on my Babycenter group and I wanted to share it. Willem LOVES them!

On stovetop, slowly add 1 1/2 cups of water to 1/2 cup flour. Heat and stir until thick and bubbly. Cool. Pour into separate containers and add food coloring (or powdered paint).

Homemade applesauce!

This week we've been learning all about apples! We've read stories of Johnny Appleseed, made paint stamps out of the apple core, and today we made home made apple sauce! Here's the recipe:

3 apples, cored and peeled
2 tablespoons honey
cinnamon

Boil apples on medium heat for 20 minutes. Mash apples. Add honey and cinnamon. Mix, and enjoy!

Bella's First Day of School!

Today was Bella's first day of kindergarten! Here are some of her thoughts on her first day:

I built a robot. I built a house too. I learned to write the letter "F". We took a picture of my robot and house. I ate an apple and dipped it in paint and then on paper and it was awesome! And we read about Johnny Appleseed.

She made a house out of pattern blocks.....

And then a robot!
