“K” Day: We had Kix cereal for breakfast and tried a kiwi fruit, but we didn’t like it. Talked about flying a kite…. And we did fly mini kites at the park for a while. Very fun. We thought of kangaroo, kitten, koala, kindness, Kayla, Kaylee, Kenya, Kazakstan, Kyrgystan, Korea, knee, knife. We read stories called, The Knee-High Man, How the Kangaroo got its Tail, and Kayoku and the Crane. We’re having kielbasa and ketchup and kernels of corn for dinner.
“L” Day: Today is St. Patrick’s Day and I was going to skip doing a letter today because I had other St. Patrick’s Day activities planned, but Micah sill wanted to do L today. It works out well since Leprechaun starts with L, and we had Lucky Charms cereal for breakfast. We tried to think of things that start with L and are green and thought of: Leprechaun, limes, limeade, leaves, lilypads, lollipops, lettuce. Other L words: limo, Lamborghini, line, lips, leg, Louisiana, Liberia, Laos, Luigi, lion, leopard, ladybug, list, love, listen, little, Larry. For St. Paddy’s Day we also found and picked a couple clovers on our walk, put some carnations in green and orange water to see them change color, made shamrock shape cookies with green sugar sprinkles, had shamrock shaped sandwiches, green milk, limeade, and rainbow fruit salad for lunch, had a hunt for gold coins (yellow cardstock circles) in the living room, and found the pot of gold/treasure (tissue box filled with toy bead necklaces, plastic coins, and chocolate coins) at the end of the (curling ribbon) rainbow. Books we have with L words: Micah at Legoland, Larry Learns to Listen, Little Einsteins, Ten Little Ladybugs, Lion King, I Love my Family. Songs we thought of with L words: Lollipop, Little Is Much, I Love my Lips. Some L dinner foods for today: lima beans, lettuce (salad), and lime Jello.
