We've had a nice day. The kids are loving the guitar, everyone has been taking a turn playing it. We did some more gluing of our mosaic design on the toy pet carrier.  Brendan asked for the Montessori materials, and once that happens everyone wants to do them :-)

We got outside! The sun was actually shining! :-)  My son Kyle brought over a couple of logs from the neighbors and I have started to set it up as a surround for the sand pile, and they can sit on them as well.

Gluing. We are adding ripped paper to the pet carrier in a mosaic pattern

We used the floor as it seemed an easier way for everyone to reach the box

The knobbed cylinders


These materials are self-correcting and it is fun to watch them figure it out


Right now Lelia is more interested in balancing the tower than in graduated sizes

Ideally, I'd like to surround the sand with logs- so if you have any I will take them :-)
