Learning Walk
*This was originally posted 2 years ago, when Big Brother was the same age as Little Brother is now! Little Brother and I have been enjoying our “learning walks” whenever Big Brother is at preschool. I’ve peppered in a few new photos as well!*
Sometimes the simplest things can be the most meaningful…
The weather has been much nicer lately, which means it is cool enough in the mornings to actually go for walks! I just started pointing out numbers and shapes on our walks and Big Brother, and now Little Brother, are hooked!
Making knowledge meaningful in real-life situations is really one of our biggest goals as parents. What better way to do this than while getting a little exercise for ourselves?!? I know I certainly need it! :)
Mailboxes make great practice for number recognition…
My two little loves…bed head and all!
And, of course, we had to stop by the park for a little gross motor fun:
The possibilities are endless with a little fresh air and sunshine!
What simple and meaningful ways do you encourage letter, shape, and number recognition?
What kind of side-by-side stroller do you have? Do you like it?
