We finished one more BFIAR book before Baby Boy came! Hooray! We will be taking a little break from Tot School to get accustomed to being a family of 4. I would say that this was probably one of Ember's least favorite books so far. She loved the activities, but she just didn't seem as excited about the book as usual. But the whole unit still turned out really well! Here is a glimpse of what we did!
Read the book every day
Watched a YouTube reading of the book
Glued "blueberries" onto a bush
We made "Dancing Blueberries" by placing dried blueberries in carbonated soda and the carbonation bubbles made the blueberries float to the top and then sink back down. Pretty cool to watch!
We made some Blueberry scones with a lemon glaze! Delicious!
Worked on directional words with a little paper bear and some printed pictures (I forgot to take a picture of this!)
Continued to work on letter recognition by placing a "blueberry" on the correct letter
Sensory bin with shaving cream, a bear, and blueberries (blue beads)
Used finger to make blueberries in a little basket
Worked on a bear puzzle
Searched for "blueberries" in the house. Then Ember hid them for me to find!
Fun unit overall!! Now for baby brother time!!
This unit looked so fun! Love the dancing blueberries! So cool! Love all the ideas! Ember just seems to love them...and I love how simple, yet fun you make it all!
