Best Kids Parties: The Very Hungry Caterpillar 

Books are one of our favorite party themes and especially when it's a much beloved book like this one. Jessie describes: Iris and Sarah ask me to read Eric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar every night, so it was easy to pick this as their theme for their big 3-year-old party!

This is one of the cutest things I have seen! Loved those toenails. I am so glad to find your blog, I have been a kindergarten teacher for 4 years and want to find out more about montessori now that I am home with my daughter. Thank you!

What a great birthday party, Jessie! This would make a wonderful end-of-unit celebration for a butterfly unit study, too!

Well, this was our first official day working with Montessori Materials- just the twins and I.  It went very well, but I was so busy I didn't take many photos.  I put out some new Practical Life Trays, which were a huge hit.  We also revealed our mystery number (3), and worked a LOT with the fall basket of sets.  They used the sandpaper letters, and sensorial materials together throughout the day.  A wonderful little afternoon with just the littles.  Big sister should be home soon!!
