Yesterday was a busy day. We did stroller strength and the playground in the morning. Visited my Grandma. She's in an assisted living center. She has a mild form of dementia. The kids love to visit her. She has some puzzle books there and they love to work on them. Plus she has classic toys that I played with as a kid. Then we did some shopping and home for C's nap. I have a new neice, she was born Thursday so K & C are very excited about their new cousin. We were buying her a toy and some clothes and we made cards for her. After dinner K & C put on a show for us. It was a ballet(K), silly man(C) show. K is really enjoying dancing and trying to do gymnastics. She has been practicing headstands against the wall, cartwheels and backbends. She's very excited about ballet. I have to get her signed up for the fall. I've been debating what class to put her in. C ran in circles through the room - superfast.
I wanted to keep track of some of the music K & C like. I need to branch out into some other areas. They love Laurie Berkner, here's one we get from the library often
Whaddaya Think of That?
They also love Tom Chapin, this is the one we are listening to now
Around the World and Back Again
K & C are not that in to Raffi but they do like this one
Bananaphone
Of course one of their favorites is from They Might Be Giants. I liked this band when I was in college so when I saw they had kids music, I checked it out and tried it. I think C could sing the alphabet backwards before he could say it forwards.
Here come the ABCs
K & C love the books with CD by John Lithgow. We've given them as gifts to friends spread around the country/world. We started with
Marsupial Sue
I've been trying to do more books on tape in the car. K loves them, C is too young and chatters so much, you can't hear the book. This one they both love
