We went to Office Depot since I had some gift cards to spend and I bought a (10) ten drawer organizing unit to use for Princess' workboxes. It is on wheels and I just LOVE it!
I also bought a Scotch laminator, manila file folders, Pip Squeak markers and die cut letters.
The week of December 27-31 and a few of the things we did:
We started the Letter I with the brand new workboxes unit and I really enjoyed filling it and my precious baby girl enjoyed looking through each drawer to see all the fun things to do.
I cut out a large I out of construction paper and we made an Iguana. Another day, I cut out a lower case i and we made an inchworm.
Books we read:
Chica Chica Boom Boom
If You Give a Kid a Pancake
I Love You, Little One
We ate ice cream and watched The Incredibles.
I played my Mainly Music CD with the song called I Spy. I took out her binoculars and she sang and pretended to find the things mentioned in the song.
I found some sugar cubes at Kroger and we made an Igloo with the sugar cubes and Icing.
All of the curriculum type books I have fill up the workboxes so quickly.
We are having so much fun! I need to find more manipulatives and games to fill the drawers and my next project is to do a cute lapbook for her.

The Letter H
I am so behind on posting!
Here are some things we did for the Letter H which was the week of December 20-24.
I cut out pink and red hearts out of construction paper and she glued them on a 11 x 17 piece of white paper. Heart was the shape of the week since it starts with H.
I checked out a few books from the library:
Hansel and Gretel
Horton Hears a Who
Hop on Pop
How Will I Ever Sleep in This Bed?
How to Heal a Broken Wing
Heart to Heart
Henry Hikes to Fitchburg
Hansel and Diesel
Cat in the Hat
We already had: The Very Hungry Caterpillar
She put a heart window cling on the window and two H's on as well. She put H magnets on the refrigerator.
One day, Princess' friend came over and they both rode around on their stick "Horses" and played Hide and Seek and for lunch, they both had turkey sandwiches on Hawaiian bread and drank Hawaiian punch.
During the week, we ate hot dogs, hamburgers, she had Nutella (made with Hazelnuts) on wheat bread for breakfast. We drank Hot Chocolate.
I printed out the H outline and my sweet Princess and her friend used bingo markers and dotted all the circles of the outline. They did the Letter Poking activity too.
On another day, I made chocolate haystacks for a treat. I enjoyed them way more than she did though. LOL!
We played Hopscotch and Hula Hoop outside.
I cut out out a large capital H and made a house with it. I cut out a lower case h and we made a horse. The idea came from Totally Tots. They have super cute ideas on that site.
She worked on all the curriculum type books throughout the week.
We watched Happy Feet and The Cat in the Hat Knows All About That.
There were so many great ideas for the Letter H that we did not get around to doing them all.
I wanted to play Hair Salon with her and let her play her harmonica and do some kind of craft with a hole puncher but time ran out.
