Octopuses and Dolphins

We spent the week learning about large sea creatures. The girls made octopus windsocks.  They loved making these and even put the provided stickers on their own feet and ran around the house pretending to be octopi. 

 

Another favorite of the day was the counting sucker octopus game. 

On day 8 the girls learned about dolphins.  They swam around the room and practiced leaping like a dolphin. Elli can't actually leap yet, but she is getting better at jumping.

 They also took turns being a dolphin or dolphin trainer.

Elli wasn't a very cooperative dolphin

The girls also worked on patterning and read this months I Can Read book.

 Addie completed her more math and reading books while Elli napped.  She also made an octopus and a dolphin with a fused bead kit.  She loved making these.
