The "little boys" working with the cylinder blocks together!

Tank showed great concentration and perseverance working with the punchwork. I really didn't expect him to finish it as he has just turned 3 and this takes a lot of effort and time. He made himself a nice apple necklace. This work strengthens the hand for writing.

Little Foot learned how to dust the shelves today!

Princess working with the addition strip board. This work is a little more abstract than doing addition with the beads. She loved it!
