This last week we focused on the letter R and it's sound.
On Tuesday, we talked about running and races. We were at Nana and Opah's so we ran some races in and around their house. Princess R learned a new word during it "Go!" She'd yell "Ga" and take off around the house. It was pretty cute.
The rest of the week we talked about reading books. Books are such an important part of our learning experience. We took a trip to the library on Thursday and I let Princess V and Princess C pick out a book.
