K is for King and Q is for Queen

New Fish's Princess and the Pea
 Today in preschool we talked about the letters K and Q.  We made them into royalty.  We looked at some pictures of kings and queens around the world and talked a little bit about what they do in real life.  The kids were not impressed as the reality did not match up with their own ideas about royalty.  New Fish didn't think most of the pictures were fancy enough. Our main theme was fairytales, which was perfect for New Fish right now.  She is fairytale obsessed.  She has a book that my Mother in law gave her that she pours over multiple times a day.  We read fairytales together on a almost daily basis and I think the girls know many of them by heart. 

This morning, we started with The Princess And The Pea.   The kids illustrated the story by using fabric scraps as the mattresses and drawing a sleeping princess on top.

 The favorite story of the day was The Three Little Pigs. We acted it out and then made a little collage of the three houses out of yarn, popsicle sticks and cardstock "bricks."  We also built castles out of blocks and did some singing and spent time playing in the sensory bin.  Not a ton of pictures this week.
