Pre-School and Activity Days

Yep, my baby girl started pre-school on Wednesday! I wasn't going to put her in it, but se feels so left out since Adi gets to go to school and have a bunch of adventures and she gets stuck at home with mom. Piper loves it!

She only goes once a week, though, and we rotate who teaches- so I teach the six 3 and 4 year olds every six weeks. That should be an adventure :) Any ideas for wat I should do for "F stands for Firefighter"? I could use the help.

On another note, I finally taught my first lesson at Activity Days. I taught about emergeny preparedness, so I had the girls act out different situations and had them figure out what to do in them. Then Adi and Piper faked injuries and the girls had to "fix" them. It actually went pretty smoothly, considering there were nine 8 year olds there and my girls.

Here's what I made for the girls to keep in their backpacks:



(plus some bandages, of course)

The best part, though, was when the 8 year olds started complaining how hard it is to memorize the Articles of Faith. So my girlies put them to shame by reciting the first eight. I was so proud!

I've been a busy mom lately, but I'm trying to post more!

Utah. = #1 best place to raise kids.

Why?

LDS mommys and their awesome ideas for raising responsible, intelligent, well-dressed children. :)

Just so you know, I will be moving next door to you when we start a family so all your genius mommy ideas can float next door.

PS: LOOVVVEE the little junior "basic life support" packet.. . .it's right up my alley.

Piper looks so excited in that picture! I'm glad your teaching on Emergency Preparedness went well.
