One of the first activities we did was to make Laundry and hang our own play Laundry Line. I wasn't sure how it was going to work out, but Savannah thought it was the best thing since sliced bread. It not only helped her with pre scissors skills (clothespins strengthen the muscles needed for the scissors), but also visual skills as finding the white yarn wasn't always the easiest.
She was also required to cut out half of the clothes after she colored them. Mom had to resist "cleaning them up a bit" but they looked pretty good. We continued the theme, by making our own homemade laundry soap. Though I had to do the stove top part, the girls filled the five gallon bucket with the warm water, and added all the powdered ingredients. I was a little hesitant to use it at first, but have found that it works just as well as the store bought brands and costs a lot less. Though I may change the formula some, I still like the basic idea.
We made this lion using paper bag cuttings for the mane. Savannah colored it before we cut it out and did all the gluing herself. We talked about the lion features and read a couple of books about the lion. Savannah is really into making her own books right now, so I tried to make it into a book for her....
We went to the lighthouse in St Augustine. Though we were unable to go to the top of the lighthouse due to height restrictions, we were able to stand at the bottom and look up to wave at the older kids up at the top. We learned about day marks and night marks, and how they used to guide the ships along the coast. We went down by the water and watched the boats out at sea, and dreamed about fishing with daddy. On the way back Savannah found a bunch of Leaves, so we did leaf rubbings when we finally made it home.
We did a lot of activities for Lollipops as it is such a fun topic. I found some lollipop outlines on the computer and printed them off for the girls. The girls had a blast painting them lots of different colors. After I laminated them with the packing tape, we pretended to eat our lollipops, share our lollipops, and all sorts of things.
After a night of cutout work, I also made these lollipops, which I laminated with packing tape. (while packing tape is a good laminator, I will admit that the lollipops or whatever you are laminating tends to stick to itself more than the contact paper. However it is a lot easier to use for smaller items.) We used them for patterning, sorting, and lots of other activities.
We did ladder and lady bug kind of on the fly. For the ladder I simply cut up scrap paper and we glued it on in the ladder shape. The lady bug was more prepared than that as I had found the pattern online and precut the pieces. We worked on counting to three for the dots on each of the ladybug wings.
All our books we read are listed above. 
We did a rocket craft then used the Rocket song off of PBS kids to "Zoom" the rocket all over the place. In case you can't read it, the song goes:
Under the rocket is our rice R's. We did this one following the rainbow R's (seen below) and Savannah liked the idea so much that she wanted to make these rainbow colored too. So we dyed the rice with food coloring and talked about mixing colors in order to get what we needed from the primary colors..... Lots of Fun!
Savannah proud of her colored rice.
Here are the Rainbow R's that we made out of construction paper. 
Savannah took strips of paper and glued it on to a white sheet of paper and I cut out the shape after the colors were on. Much easier. (Found it on another blog so don't give me credit...It's from No Time for Flashcards.) Above is also our Rabbit R, which I also found on the other blog.... cut but harder for Savannah as it required more fine motor for the tiny pieces.....
Every letter I have large letters for Savannah just to color by herself. This time we cut them out and used rainbow colors in the leftover cutouts to make these r's. Though not notebook worthy, they did turn out pretty cool. I especially like the lowercase r.
