Summer is about half way over and G is already asking when he gets to go back to preschool. I keep telling him not until the end of August. G is a very social kid who constantly wants to go places and do things. He is not good about playing by himself. We are working so hard on this concept. I think a lot of it comes from being the first child. So with M we are already putting him in his from for short periods of time to get used to playing by himself. We never did this with G. Anyways, this has been the first week since June that we have had nothing planned and I knew G would be driving me crazy for something to do. So I told him on Monday, he had to play by himself while I got dressed, had my quite time, cleaned the house and took care of M. Then when M went down for his morning nap I would be all his until M woke. He didn't like this idea at first, but he's now used to it.
While M is sleeping we've been working on a letter of the day and doing craft projects and games. A friend from college posted this link http://www.notimeforflashcards.com/ on her blog and we've been using a lot of those ideas. G's behavior has been so good this week since my attitude is good and gets to spend time with me for 2hours each morning. Here are some pics from our first day.
