What you do with Caleb is so great. I was wondering what book it was that you told me about a while back, that has activities that are appropriate for certain ages? And are you getting these ideas from other books, or how have you come up with them?
By the way, we miss you a lot! You didn't happen to forget anything in Staten Island and need to come down, did you? :)
your doing some great stuff!!!! he is very lucky to have you as a mom!!
One of the books that I told you about has an activity each week based on age. It's called "Slow and Steady, Get me Ready" by June Oberlander the other one that I get some ideas from is called "The Complete Resource Book for Preschoolers: An Early Childhood Curriculum With Over 2000 Activities and Ideas" by Pam Schiller and Kay Hastings. Then I just use ideas from what I think Caleb needs to work on and a lot of great sites out there that you ideas.
