Ring-a-Round the Rosy

This week our theme to learn about is "legs". I am really liking that curriculum book. It has good ideas that are practical for her age. Anyways, I requested a couple of books they recommended and hopefully they will be available in a day or two. They were checked in their library, but just needed to be shipped to mine to pick up.

Well, a couple of the things they recommended in the book was to sing "Ring-a-Round the Rosy" and then talk about what happens to your legs when you fall down. And another one we did was "Jack Be Nimble" and teach them about jumping over something. She thinks jumping is fun, but right now it's more like she goes up onto her tippy-toes.

Something else we did (not in the book, but read on Babycenter.com about teaching her this) is teaching her to jump down with both feet and not just lead with one foot and let the other fall (which is what she does). This is something we'll need to work on for a while.

We'll save other things from that chapter of the book to do other days this week.
