Learning is fun: Letter N

We're getting back into the swing of things with our letter crafts. Picking up where we left off last year, we focused on the letter N this week, complete with a Noah's Ark that actually rocked back and forth and lots of glittery raindrops.

I precut the rainbow and the water for her, and had Abby practice holding her crayons properly and try to stay in the lines this week. She impressed me with how well she handled both challenges. Her proper handling of drawing utensils is much better than that of her eating utensils, which gives me new resolve for insisting she eat like a big kid and not with her fingers.

Our ark was attached to the backdrop with the help of a brad I had lying around the house, and Abby was pretty impressed to have created her first interactive craft. Now if I could just convince her that we don't need to keep taking it down off the wall to rock the boat back and forth...
