Tot Tuesday

This week I needed sone quiet time with the tot while I was working with J and her reading. Nothing makes it harder to concentrate when the tot is talking loudly in the background while we are trying to focus on learning a new skill. So I pulled out a sheet of stickers and some paper.

Can you see the concentration he gives this? This gave us a good 30 minutes to finish what we were working on. To ease frustration, I remove the sticker outlines (if that makes sense). By doing this, he can easily take off the stickers without any help. This is a great activity to bring on flights. I try to bring stickers and a mini book whenever we travel to keep him occupied. It doesn't take up much room and offers some quiet time while traveling.
