Abby is starting to rid herself of her morning nap. (Did I seriously just write that?!?) I actually looked forward to William quitting the morning nap, as it gave me time to get groceries, go to the mall, etc., but during Abby's nap is when I like to work with William on his "studies". When she is up she is into
everything. She touches everything, she moves everything, she tastes everything. So I've had to get creative. You know,
involve her somehow. I got out my unifx cubes and let her have at it, at least while William and I did our Bible lesson.
William dutifully showed her how to play with them. By the time we finished with David's Anointing (yes, IknowIknow...we just covered Moses and the 10 Commandments, but this Bible book moves fast!) the cubes were all over the school room and just about everyone had been tasted.
I never really taught early elementary school, so I wasn't sure if it was time to introduce scissoring. It wasn't. We'll be waiting a bit longer to try these babies out again.
Check out this cool sepia picture! I like to call this time outside with the water "Playing with the sensory table".
This picture just cracks me up! What in the world is William trying to eat? I think he's taking a bite from the hand exerciser. Who knows!

Great post! We're in the same boat. Lucy's been done with her morning nap for almost a month already, so having one-on-one time with each of them has become a challenge now. At least they both nap together in the afternoons though and like you said we can finally get some errands run in the mornings instead of being stuck at home for her to nap!
Just wondering, what Bible book are you using for your lessons with William? Does it have craft suggestions or is that something you're putting together each time?
