Keeping Busy

I have been slacking a little with keeping my spirited child busy…partly because of the demands of my now 8 month old….he is getting into everything and having tons of separation anxiety. Partly because I have been exhausted lately. And partly because I have been just plain lazy.  Lucas tends to do better when I keep him as busy as possible from task to task…probably because he doesnt’ have time to get bored and think of ways to annoy me or get into trouble!

Today, I thought I would start off just by spending a little time learning letters.  We’ll start with letter “A” since I know he is also covering that in school. I am stealing these ideas from No Time For Flashcards here (scroll down to her discovery box idea) and here. If you have never perused this web site and you have kids, you should definitely check it out. I steal tons of ideas for activities and crafts with my kids from this site!

wish me luck!
