Author: We worked on colors today. I know my colors fairly well but mommy likes to test me. Today we made ice cream cones with construction paper and tissue paper. Ethan is good at tearing so he helped me tear the tissue paper while mommy made the ice cream cones. We glued the cones to the paper then we drew circles with glue. I stuck the tissue paper on the glue to make it look like ice cream. Mommy is mean making ice cream that I can’t eat! We talked about colors and mommy showed me how colors can have different shades. Our paper wasn’t big enough so we had to make two more ice cream cones to put all the colors on.

Mommy helped me color the numbers 0-9 on paper plates this morning and we played number frisbee. We would throw the plates all around the living room then mommy would tell me what number to bring back. I would go looking for it, find it and bring it back. I keep confusing the six and the nine but mommy said that’s OK because she didn’t do a good job drawing them. I like number frisbee, I get to do two of my favorite things, run and show off how smart I am getting.

Santa left a pack of glow sticks in my Christmas stocking. Today mommy snapped one and we went into the closet and closed the door so I could see it glow. We were drawing big circles, making butterflies and drawing letters really fast so I could see them lit up. It was a lot of fun, I liked the butterflies the best!

Awawa, that’s how I say Koala. Today mommy and I watched a video and read a book about Koala’s. Mommy teaches me about Australian animals and sings Australian songs with me so I can learn about where I was born. Today she told me about koala’s eating leaves, living in trees, sleeping lots and we looked at a map of Australia so I could see where Koala’s live. I think koala’s are cute and I laughed when I watched the koala running on the ground.
Mommy finds some animal video’s at National Geographic Kids and ordered me a DVD about Australian animals from their store that I love watching.
