Memorial Day Hat



We made this little hat craft to show our love for the soldiers

Supplies:
blue construction paper
white construction paper
Stapler
Scissors
Red crayon
Tape
Stickers
Straws (2 per hat)

Cut a piece of construction paper in half and fold in half.
 
 
I folded each one down and stapled one piece to the end of the other one to make a long band.
Measure it around the head and staple.  You can cover the staple with a piece of tape so it doesn't snag the hair.
Next, we needed to make flags.  I cut a piece of construction paper in half three times. (short way)  You'll end up with the two long rectangles.
Cut out a small rectangle to glue in the corner.  We put star stickers on, and drew 13 stripes on the flag.  Next, I cut a piece of a straw (you can leave them as long as you want) and stapled the flag to the straw.
Pin It
 
Stick the flags inside the fold of your head band.  You can staple them in if you want.  I didn't in case the kids wanted to take one out and wave them.
 
Finished product - Two little troopers showing love for the soldiers.

If you're happy and you know it

 
 
My toddler absolutely loves this video.  All the characters are very much alive and active during the whole song rather than just the action parts.

Learning Body Parts

Well, it's taken us almost two weeks to review body parts. (We were supposed to be doing body parts last week  and then clothing this week.) Mainly because my mom kept my little boogers and Caleb refused to cooperate with her yelling, "No, mama."  So here's what we did.
 
We made a face out of things around the house.
 
Formerly, "Nick the Noun"  I reused him for Caleb to identify his body parts.
 
I decided to use fabric paint and make a helping hands shirt.  Our hands were a little too helpful.
 
Using baby dolls to point out and name body parts
 
We read this and another one titled "Thank You God, for My Two Ears"
 
We also listened and danced to these songs,
