Square Week

The week started off with a little game of Memory.  Daniel really wanted to play it instead of doing school.  I didn't think of it right away, but the game pieces are squares, so I pointed that out to him later.

Even Nicholas joined in to play with Daniel.

He also dot painted a square.  We’re encountering some perfection problems.  On the first square he made a mistake, so he requested another.  Thankfully, he was pleased with his second one.

He is telling me the colors he has used so far.




Daniel also made a little rectangle man with a face.  He didn't want to put the arms and the legs where they belong though and that’s fine.  He was having fun.



He also worked on tracing some rectangles.  Instead of favoring his right or left hand, he just used both.



In other news, we had a lot of celebrating this past weekend.   Evan’s dad turned 70 and my grandma had her birthday the next day.  We had dinner and hung out with Evan’s family on Sunday.  The boys enjoyed spending time with their cousins, while we worked on making plans for an upcoming family vacation.



Then, we enjoyed pizza with my grandma on Monday.  Since her birthday fell on a Monday, Evan was able to join us too.  We only wish that the place didn't get rid of their buffet.  But, I think we all enjoyed our meals anyway. 

I’m a little late posting, so we've already started this week – rectangle week!  Hopefully, the weather doesn't get too much colder like they are predicting because the boys would much rather be doing this:






Daniel’s materials were found from various websites, such as:
