monday

The beans went to local group this morning all about favourite things. SB took heaps of jacket potatoes – and we had some of them for tea!
in the afternoon, when we had all got home, she did some education city – enjoying it, and I have stared with the easiest bits doing a my city. She wanted to do the spanish, but that doesn’t seem an option at her level. i might email and ask if we can have access to it. she did like the french though. i helped identify the sounds the first time and thenn left her to carry on so I could read apple tree farm to BB.
BB did some oogly googly gears and playdoughing, and SB looked at a DK history book with me – rather lovely – and we did early people in it, picking up the theme at bedtime by reading about otzi the ice mummy. She also did some letter formation with getty and dubay – they’re big letters, but I guess she needs to start in the right place, as she otherwise chooses bottom up. we all playdoughed for a bit.
tea of jacket pots, and then watched some more trials of life before bed.

  1. How many languages has SB been exposed to? It always seems like you are writting about different languages! Which one does she seem to like the most? My two have just started French–can you recommend a good online sight for that?

  2. well, exposed rather than learning. I most wanted to do german, so had muzzy free from a friend and got a couple of dvd’s. so she hears the language a bit.
    However, she has a cousin who now lives in france, which sparked her interest a bit, so although we have no resources for it she wants to learn a bit – so I have been making up conversations and now she uses education city. i will try and get a few kiddie programmes in french – just to hear the sounds rather than learn the language.
    I always wanted to learn spanish, and also was given the muzzy for that.
    I think we may end up splashing out for rosetta stone though, but in which language??
    hopefully if a jolie ronde starts up nearish to us on a convenient day, we would join in with that.
