Music Makers
Mr. Super MindThe transition back to school is in its second week. The school age Rugrats are doing great and depart everyday eager to learn. I still miss them but am settling into a new and exciting schedule with the toddler Rugrats.
So far we have engaged in many toddler activities such as power struggles, learning boundaries, testing, temper tantrums, hair pulling, attempted biting, and lets not forget the best activity of all "It's Mine!" Oh the joys of toddler time!
The toddlers are learning about positive socialization through our play and activity time. We have been engaging in large muscle play outside, small motor skills inside through the use of blocks, shape sorters, and puzzles. We are working on vocabulary through everyday verbalization, stories, and object naming. Learning about our bodies and self awareness is fun through finger plays, music and movement. And finally we are learning about the world around us on our daily walks and visiting.
Of course we have Lilly and Oskar who most definitely are not toddlers. They have quickly become leaders and enjoy teaching and helping. Oskar is my right hand man. He knows everything about whats going on. I so enjoy our time together. He is smart and witty and always knows the right thing to say to make me laugh. Thanks Oskar for all you do. He is also enjoying going to preschool with his friend, Reed. Lilly talks and talks and talks. The toddlers are most definitely learning from her. She too is smart and independent and talks and talks to me all day. I love it!

Looks like they had a great time making music! Did you make it through the day without a headache after that??!!
Mr. Super Mind -- That's hilarious! He tells me all the time how he is such a "help" to Teresa! He's really proud to play such an important role in the Farmtree family. A million thanks would not be enough for all you do - even so, THANK YOU!!
