Jumping Bean is 30 months.
We will be spending the next few weeks learning our shapes. We started this week with Circles!
Colors & shapes memory match game I bought at Target for .58! It comes with 2 sets of the cards, I laid 1 set on the floor & Jumping Bean matched the 2nd set to the 1st set.
I cut out a circle out of the bubble wrap & then with a circle sponge Jumping Bean did a “circle” painting.
I took a string, made a circle on the floor & gave Jumping Bean game playing chips, I had him trace the circle with the game chips.
He loves to play with toy balls so to continue our “circle” theme I taped paper towel rolls together, tied it to a chair, gave him some balls for him to roll throught the paper towel rolls.

We had a busy week, playing, learning, Valentine’s Day Party – it wore him out! He fell asleep at the dinner table!
Next week we will be learning about more shapes : triangles & hearts!
Wow those were some of the most SIMPLE yet fun ideas- love it! I think making a circle with the poker chips is great— and I just LOVED the papertowel tube that you made – I want to try this- my girls would absolutely LOVE to roll things down the tube- so much fun!
These are wonderful pictures. I love the sleeping picture!
Have a wonderful day!

I just love circles – but I love that sweet sleeping boy better!
Oh my goodness falling asleep at the table is so cute. Love that you got a picture of it.
Thanks for another poker chip idea. I saw some last week at the dollar store and was thinking about what to do with them. From several of this weeks totschool posts I have some great ideas!
His sleeping picture is precious! What great circle activities!
The string on the floor and the poker chips is a great idea!! I’ll try something similar here soon – too bad I passed up on those cheap poke chips at the Target dollar spot – ugh!
Such a great week!!! I love the picture of the sleeping baby…too cute 🙂
