St. Patrick's Day Lunch

Another thing that happen today, I was preparing my boys' lunch, and it was all green. Those darn mischievous leprechauns did it again. Now I know why they were playing with the macaroni and cheese. Tristan, wasn't sure if he wanted to eat it. I reassured him that it tasted the same, it was just green. Brayden and Jayden didn't care, it was food and they ate it no problem. After I had Tristan try it, he ate all of up.

The green lunch...


Green macaroni & cheese, green cottage cheese & green shamrock shape jello



Here's Tristan eating his green lunch.






Visit From The Mischievous Leprechauns - St. Patrick's Day

This morning my boy's woke up to a mess. The mischievous leprechauns were here and did some unusual things around the house.

First, they left gold chocolate coins all over the house


They stacked the kitchen chairs on top of each other



They took the macaroni and cheese boxes out of the pantry, and played with them


Flipped the coffee table over


and hid some gifts in the hallway.


Brayden, starting eating the chocolate coins,


Tristan started blowing bubbles


And Jayden checked out his ball

Letter Of The Week - S For Shamrock




I've decided to work with Tristan on some of his education. Tristan is 4 and a little slow on his speech, but he does know his ABC's and he can count to 30 with no help. But he needs to learn how to write them. So because St. Patrick's Day is just a week away, I decided to start with the letter S.

Here is what we used:
Green Finger Paint
Paper Plate
Yellow Construction Paper
Shamrock Print Out
Glue
Scissors



I printed out a shamrock which you can get from here.

I then had Tristan paint it green with finger paint.
I place some paint on a paper plate to make it easier for Tristan to use.









While we were waiting for the shamrock to dry, we grabbed the yellow piece of construction paper, and with Tristan's finger, wrote the letter S on the it.



After the shamrock was dry, we turned it over and put glue on the back



Tristan then flipped it over and placed it on the construction paper next to the letter S. Then tapping it in place.



Then it was finished
