Letter Project Part 4

Here's how the wall looks now...
It looks pretty messy- I'm going to take it down soon and just put it all in a book...I just had wanted her to be able to see it all at one time. (the open book shows the picture of King Mosiah's sons- that is the picture I used for the K week, but of course I wouldn't rip it out to hang it up...)


Is this getting boring? I'm sorry if it is...I'm still hanging on, so I'm still gonna blog it.

Letter M:
I have to be honest, over the holidays I totally relaxed my plan again. For M we still talked about Mary on Day 1, Made an M out of a picture of Macy on Day 2. Since it was Christmas, we did a lot of Mary and Merry Christmas. We also wrote and talked about her name, since it's "her" letter.

Letter N:
Day 1: We did Naomi this week so I could talk about Ruth, who I love.
Day 2: We made an N out of a Necklace
Day 3: We got special "Toy Story 3" mac and cheese and Macy got to keep several Noodles shaped like Buzz, Woody, Alien guy, and Hamm (I think?. She had fun making them talk- that girl can turn anything into a "baby".
Day 4:I had seen an Easter craft in Parents magazine where you could make a Nest out of that poster tacky stuff and sticks- pretty easy and fun little thing to do. I decided to try out their other craft too of cutting an egg carton and setting an egg in it to make a little chicky to put in the nest. cute.
Day 5: I made a little "flannel board" (though just paper...) out of the story of Naomi, Ruth, Orpah, and their husbands- and how they triumphed.

Naomi, Orpah, and Ruth "Flannel Board"
Letter O:
Day 1: I'm not sure if it's really...umm, sanitary? But we made our "O" out of orange peel- people use them in potpourri right?
Day 2: I know it's slacker-ish, but I had Orpah be my letter "o" girl- a woman with an "O" name? Just gotta do it.
Day 3: Again with the slacker mentality- we played with our paper doll story board to tell the story- mostly so we could talk about Ruth again.
Day 4: We made Owl cookies- "WHOO is your Valentine?"
Day 5: We made an Octopus out of cool bubble wrap we stamped.
