Week 8 - Coping with Change

~Bug is 16.5 months old~

Theme:      Shapes

“As for God, His way is perfect” (2Samuel 22:31a) is our verse for this week and appropriate as our plans changed so much. Mommy spent some time at the ER and then bed rest so we had to change up Tot School this week. Bug was a trooper and we even turned the ER visit into a learning experience in patience. Considering we didn’t have a breakdown for the entire five hours, we called it a success.

Thanks to a very special aunt for sending a new sorting toy we were able to keep moving forward with our shape learning and sorting skills.

Bug has become very interested in his circle stacker and is actually beginning to stack them in the correct order.

At our visit to the pumpkin patch we had a lesson on choosing one over the other. Bug wanted both pumpkins and had to make a decision (he chose a completely different one plus daddy got him a mini pumpkin) which was not easy and took a little coaxing.

As we went through the week we had some impromptu learning lessons like how to open and close containers and pick up his toys without mommy’s help.
