Sometimes I giggle about this blog, because we are so different: we have a Montessori home, with Montessori Philosophy and Materials available 24/7 for traditionally schooled children. So, the work we do is a little different than a Montessori School or a Homeschool. We afterschool? Is that a word? I guess so!!

| Water Transferring with Eye Dropper, this is SO challenging. Great for 5 year olds. |

| Pumpkin exploring some Pink Tower & Brown Stair Extensions |
 |
| After baking, we used our mortar and pestle for crushing egg shells. They LOVED this! |
 |
| Crushing Eggs and Filling Muffin Tins with batter. |
 |
| Bean comes home from a FULL DAY at K and still wants to work! This is her sensitive period for writing, and reading. She's taking full advantage of the movable alphabet. |
 |
| Bean spelled all types of things, with objects and through her imagination. After all that work, she still wanted to write it all down. |
 |
| Bead Transferring by hand, sorting by color. Perfect for Peanut, age 3. |
 |
| I took Bean to a Waldorf Faire, where you could Hug A Bunny. She spent the day there, this photo is hanging next to her bed. She really fell in love with that bunny. Between the bunny and the Gnome cave, we almost had a convert! We left with a car full of fairy treats, covered in bunny fur. |

egg shells are a great idea for pestle and mortar. I've been holding off buying one because i wasn't sure Goblin would be string enough to crush traditional things like cloves, but he could definitely do egg shells. Thanks
