Just a thought

... that occurred to me earlier today, when Santino and I went for a walk.

Montessori Summer Art Activities: Foot Printing

About a month ago I joined a Facebook group called "Montessori Summer Art and Music activities for the 2-6 year olds". The group was organized by Lisa Nolan, who offers easy activities and engages moms in the conversations about the challenges they face and the progress their little ones show. I "met" Lisa on Google+, such a wonderful place to find like-minders!

A field trip to the Canada Wonderland

This is not something unusual for us. After all, I did buy a season pass, so that we could go as often as we like, thanx to my friends Devin and Joana who drive us.

Santino's favourite lunch: dinosaur sandwiches

He loves his food, including vegetables and grains and meat and sometimes fish. He is rather easy to feed, but he is a child, so if I make the dinosaur sandwiches instead of regular square or triangular, this makes him very excited and happy.

The colorful plate I made this time was just for fun. He loved it!

A person's a person....

I just wanted to share this nice shot I took this morning on our walk in the woods. Santino stood for a few moments, watching the huge trees, and I just felt that he felt how small we are. Life is big. I hope he gets the most out of it.

Active fun: Hand-Eye Coordination and Sorting

We've had a few cold and rainy days in the past couple of weeks. This meant that we spent lots of time inside. Again. Santino can entertaining himself much better now, but I still like to spend time with him, incorporating some learning as we go.
