Grandma was here! So we took a vacation from doing hands-on crafts and more dedicated school time. After some adjustment time, the kids loved hanging out with her and even made her read to them. Clearly, even though there was no formal teaching, learning was taking place because, suddenly, Hucksley is counting! He placed his trucks in a row and counted them. The day before my mother in law came for a visit, we had made a counting book together as a craft where I had them count out stickers. It was fun to see all that percolate through his head. Bombie is a little more reticent to count even though she can; I have heard her do it. She will not do anything on demand unless she is absolutely certain she can do it perfectly. My little perfectionist.
