Kate made handprint acorns.
I drew an acorn and ripped up a paper bag for Kate to glue onto the paper. She tried to rip some of the pieces herself, but grocery bags are very strong and not easy for little hands to rip!
The Sneaky, Snacky Squirrel Game is super cute. We have played it many times this week. It's a great game to teach young children colors, number recognition (only 1 and 2), strategy (which color acorns do you need), and fine motor skills (squeezing the squirrel grabber to pick up acorns), plus it is well made and quick to play.
I helped Kate make acorn treats using Hershey's Kisses, chocolate chips, and Nutter Butter bites.
While out on a walk, Kate found many acorns and placed them in her felt autumn pail.
We will spend some time over the next few days counting the acorns, but so far she has just enjoyed playing with and examining them.
A Squirrel's Tale is definitely Kate's favorite book out of this bunch because it comes with a little squirrel that you slip through slots on each page - super cute!
