A is for Ambulance-- action shots


Sensory bin, sorting out letter A's
Loading cotton balls into the ambulance

We read Five Little Monkeys and talked about obeying, how to call the doctor, and what makes an emergency.  We also talked about the community helpers of doctors, nurse, and paramedics. Mostly though we played! That is what being 3 is all about :)

Sorting bandages by color (they sell these at the dollar store)

Fine motor skills are practiced by removing the backing
 and placing the bandages on our letter outline

The one year old jumped in on the sensory bin play too.
I removed everything but the cotton balls and jar.  She had a blast filling and dumping!
 

I added tweezers to add fine motor practice, plus it is fun! 
Shape craft 


My 6 year old jumped in on the craft, but I had her cut out all her own shapes


Here is link for my letter outlines
