Pinecone Art

Today we collected pinecones and painted them for Christmas and Thanksgiving.

Using a cardboard tray we rolled the pinecones in paint.  We had fun talking about the colors and using action words such as "roll".   

These will look nice on our mantel for the holidays.

Gingerbread Play House

I had a large box laying around, so today we made it into a gingerbread house for Adeline and her friends.  I covered the box with brown packing paper and then glue gunned on lot of goodies.  Adeline loved putting all her animals into the house.  We talked about "in the house" and the names of the animals as they went "in". 

 I think she will enjoy using some new language with her house this Christmas season.
