Thanksgiving Unit| Week 13

 We had so much fun learning about turkeys and doing Thanksgiving crafts this past week of tot school! 

Our time was spent doing free printables, visiting the library, reading books about Thanksgiving and visiting a local bakery for a 'turkey' sugar cookie. She brought her kangaroo along for the treat.

A quick activity was making these simple 'sun catchers' with contact paper and tissue paper. We also picked up a library craft packet and made this hat. She said 'GOBBLE GOBBLE' when she wore it.

Another simple activity was drawing a turkey and having her use dot stickers to 'color' in the feathers. 


She loves to use the library tablets and makes sure to clean up and push her chair in afterward without prompting from her mama. 


Books that stood out this week included Bear Says Thanks by Karma Wilson, The Berenstain Bears Give Thanks and Thanks for Thanksgiving by Julie Markes.

We worked on prewriting, gluing and placement of paper. She does so great with a glue bottle and also with a glue stick. 

Her memory verse this month was "I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart. Psalm 111.1" 


And a family photo from our Thanksgiving. We hope you had a great one!


With heart from our home, 

Jordan

Single Serving Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

 I had a few hours to myself today and decided to search for a good single serving chocolate chip cookie recipe. I found one by cookingclassy.com and thankfully it turned out so great! It was similar to the taste and size of Crumbl Cookies chocolate chip cookie (they are my favorite!) The dough is a very crumbly consistency so I recommend once you have your baking sheet lined with parchment paper to just dump it on top and form it into a large disc. I had a hard time trying to get the dough to come together so I opted to do this instead. See the recipe below! Ingredients: 2 TBSP butter (I used unsalted) 3 TBSP packed light-brown sugar. 1 pinch of salt. 1 TBSP whisked egg (crack egg in bowl and mix up well then scoop out 1 TBSP and add to your bowl.) 1/4 tsp vanilla. 1/3 cup all purpose flour. 1/8 tsp baking soda. 3-4 TBSP chocolate chips.  Recipe: Melt butter in microwave until only a little left is unmelted. mix together so that all is melted. Place butter in fridge to cool s...

Baking Unit | Tot School Week 15

 Baking Unit wasn't as hands on as I had hoped, but we have another week of Christmas festivities to make up for that! We did several worksheets to practice prewriting skills and also decorated a cupcake chef hat! A simple sensory bin was made from oats and some kitchen tools I had on hand. She scooped the oats into the cupcake tins and made 'cupcakes'. The most exciting part of baking week was making gingerbread houses with Grandma. She mostly taste tested but was quite excited about building them! We got started on Christmas books early so didn't check out specific baking books, although a forever favorite of ours is Who At All the Cookie Dough? By Karen Beaumont. We look forward to more baking activities while celebrating the holidays. With heart from our home,  Jordan
