We covered letter x this week. Tough one... So we did words that have an x in them. We started with tracing...
Then we did a directional activity using a box and a fox. The kids drew a card which said " on top," "under," "inside," etc. The kids then had to put the fox in the correct spot on/in/under the box. They actually liked this one.
Then we did a dance party to "What does the fox say?"
On Tuesday we did tracing, cutting and pasting. This was a good review of things that started with or had an x.
Then we played our xylophone...
And made one too.... The kids loved this one!
On Wednesday we did some tracing...
Watched a video about getting an x-Ray...
And then made our own using hot glue.
On Thursday we did a few worksheets and tracing before packing for another fun weekend.
The kids got to play outside while I finished loading and making lunch.
After lunch we headed to Ft. Leavenworth to visit the Caywoods and the rest of the Copp family who were visiting from Maryland.
We did some exploring down by the Missouri River waterfront...and later went bowling.
On Friday we ventured to Crown Center in KC and did crafts at Kaleidoscope before going to Science City.
On Saturday morning we went to Bernstein Bears Live. The kids loved it and they got a free book!
Afterward we took the older kids to Home Depot for a wood craft. Kieryn had a lot of fun making her heart box!
While we were gone the younger ones played at a park.
We spent the rest of the day outside because it was amazing weather! The kids had so much fun together! It was sad that the weekend had to end!
Thanks Janell and Brad for housing everyone and for all the wonderful food! It was a blast!
Until next time!
Fum memories for us too! When we arrived home on Sunday we were tired!! I even took a nap.
