We have had such awful weather this week and the poor kids have been stuck inside for WAY too long
I remembered doing a project with play dough and tooth picks when I taught preschool- pinching the toothpicks and pushing them into the dough is supposed to strenghen their hands and fingers so they can eventually hold a pencil properly for writing. Plus it was fun! Cole made Birthday cakes for us for about an hour and so Brady copied-he also ate the dough about 12 times??
It was nice to just stay in our pajamas and listen to the rain and wind from inside our warm house!

that is such a good idea!!! I just got mason those lacing boards to help out with holding a pencil but I like this idea better!
