Geography, Pre-K Style.

in Homeschooling: Not just for the socially awkward anymore.,Toddlers: The Experience

Since the debut of our “states” fun back in April, a lot of people have asked about our progress.

So, I finally remembered to videotape it.

Disclaimer #1: Yes, the angle and lighting start out bad. I promise I fix it after a couple of states.

Disclaimer #2: Yes, I know that this video is long. But there are a lot of states. Gimme a break.

Stats:
2 1/2 Years old
2 1/2 Months of learning (or, the “fun new game”, as Ali thinks it is)
3.5 pounds of Pistachios
1/2 million marshmallows
150 Yogurt covered raisins (for variety)

p.s. – I just figured out the trick of stealing and re-rewarding today – but she didn’t seem to notice too much. Cuts down on the sugar intake nicely.

W.O.W! That is amazing!!!

She cracked me up the looks she kept giving her cup and you everytime you stole her candy, and then the time she says, "I still got plenty." Too funny! She was on to you.

I am not sure what to think of a mommy that steals back the rewards for getting the answer right. She is awesome.
