Today is…Thursday Jan 13 2011
We were hunting for dinosaurs today…
My friend (the one who gets kids fun stuff to learn with) brought a couple of dino eggs for the boys to hack bones out of and assemble. The kit included a egg with tiny plastic bones hidden inside, a plastic chisel, and a paint brush.
The boys were enthralled:
Ettin approved the flavour of the paintbrush:
And they all worked together to find the incredibly teensy bones in the hard sandy egg:
Here it is, all assembled:
Their friend Beanie stayed with us for the afternoon.
Ettin took careful notes:
We did our music (kinderbach) with Beanie. I love this program! It has nifty videos:
Entices participation:
And gives us something concrete to study (and colour):
Then we baked up some dino bone shaped buns.
Ettin approved the flavour of the dough:
And the boys completely ruined their supper:
(but had lots of fun ruining it 😉 )
