E is for Elephant

This week we worked on the letter E. We learned alot about elephants. Here is the project we did for our ABC book. I just cut the pieces from gray cardstock and the kids glued them together. Drew was really bothered that the elephant didn't have feet!Here is Brodie's handwriting. One morning I came out to the living room and he was in the chair writing his e's without me even prompting him. He also threw in a boat picture!Brodie has also been really into ABC dot-to-dots. I found a cute elephant one here.

E is for Elmer

Elmer the Elephant. We read this book today. I remember reading this book to Tony when he was little. In fact, he used to have a stuffed Elmer elephant. I wander what ever happened to that... Anyway the kids really liked this book. Here is the craft that we did to go along with it.
I drew these elephants on cardstock (are you impressed, he he) and cut them out. Then I gave each of the boys squares of different colored paper. They did the rest.Linked to Showcase Friday at Ramblings of a Crazy Woman.
