But regardless of how others feel I'll do, we are loving it! We start each day with a little school after breakfast. Kaylynn often joins in listening, coloring, or taking apart the ABC puzzle yet again. Often Desmond will ask me for more when we're done so that's encouraging. Today I pulled out the LEGOS to incorporate his two passions into one: learning and building. He actually gave me the idea with this note he created during a quiet time.
I love my creative, smart boy! I'm noticing improvement in his reading and writing skills. It's really fun to watch.
This week we're learning about dinosaurs and the letter "D". I found a dinosaur exhibit at the children's museum so I think we'll be taking a field trip later this week. How fun to have the flexibility to combine a fun play day and school!
Another fun outing we're planning is the LEGO Expo. Happened to see an ad in a magazine, and I know Desmond will love it! I'm kind of excited to check it out, too. Davin and I just have to decide who gets to go play with him. I want to encourage his building skills. Who knows? We just might have an engineer on our hands.
