But as you can see, Ladybug was much more into the coloring this week than last!Our C verse was: "Create in me a clean heart" from Psalm 51:10.
Ladybug knows the words "clean" and "heart" so I was hoping this would be an easy one for her to learn. And it was! She was able to recite part of this verse with me right away! YAY!!
I chose two songs for this week: "Create in Me a Clean Heart" to go along with our verse and to sing at bedtime. And "I am a C" for play time and when riding in the car. She loves "I am a C." She knows the ABC song so I am guessing that spelling out the words is similar to singing the alphabet. Although she doesn't get much past C-H right, it's fun to sing together.
Do y'all know these songs? Do I need to post the words? I can if you want me to - just let me know.
And this is what our kitchen door looks like so far! (Have I mentioned how much fun I'm having with this? I really thought it would be a chore to do crafts with a toddler. But it's not a chore at all!)
I haven't taken many pictures of Ladybug while we're crafting because this is such new territory for me (and I'm a control freak, but I'm working on that!). But I did a few on the day we did this craft. Isn't she a cutie?
So sweet. We are getting ready to start our homeschool year. We use a letter theme for our youngest during our circle time, with songs and verses, just like you. :-) Do you do foods with the letter of the week, too?
ReplyDeleteBecky, thanks so much for your comment!
ReplyDeleteSince this is a new undertaking for me, I am keeping things simple and basic. I'm slowly adding new activities into our letter of week theme as we go & I'll post about those in the coming weeks.
I see why you call her Ladybug - she is ADORABLE! Great job with the craft & learning projects...you're a natural! :) Eryn
ReplyDeleteShiloh loves the clean heart song. She calls it the "create in me" song, but she slurs it together so she'll say, "sing the createinme song, Mommy."
ReplyDeleteYou've really inspired me to start doing this with my Girlie. She would really like the one-on-one time, the singing, and the crafts - all of it! And I know she's old enough to memorize simple scripture like this. Thanks for the ideas!
ReplyDeleteI love that verse. And how inspiring this is. I need to do more like this with Gray. I am looking to start something especially since the older boys start school this week.

I love how you've made block letters for coloring in the verses! The theme verse is such a great idea! And Ladybug is so cute doing the coloring!
