A 100 Day Snack

2 / 23 / 172 / 27 / 17

100 Day Snack | Mama Papa Bubba

Ahhh… 100 Day.  Such a big deal when you’re 6 and have been looking forward to it all year long.  I used to love celebrating 100 Day as a teacher, so I can only imagine how excited Miss G is to be celebrating her 100th day of Grade One today.  I’m not sure how they’ll be celebrating at school, but you can bet I sent her off with a little mama-made 100 Day Snack in her backpack.  Grae loves snack mixes {especially when they involve chocolate!}, so these always go over really well. Last year she came home from school, raved about how great her 100 Day snack was, and requested we make another batch as an afternoon snack, so I figured why not?  My Kindergarten kiddos used to love creating their own custom 100 Day snacks and I knew Miss G would too.

Number Recognition  Counting Practice on Mirrors | Mama Papa Bubba

After seeing Jackie’s post about pairing mirrors with glass gems and dry erase markers on Happy Hooligans  recently, I knew we had to try it.  Mirror play is something I’ve wanted to explore with Miss G for a long while now, and seeing that post gave me the push I needed to go out and pick up a mirror dedicated solely to play.

Pumpkin Seed Counting Game

Pumpkin Seed Counting Game | Mama Papa Bubba

I’ve been a long time fan of No Time for Flashcards, so when Allison, the author, announced that her very first post was live on Adventures in Learning (the new PBS Parents blog), I headed on over to check it out.  As usual, her learning activity was creatively set up, engaging as could be, and easy to put together.  While we really haven’t started doing activities that have specific learning outcomes in mind (we’re more in the play and learn along the way stage), Gracen does love counting and all sorts of games, so I decided we’d give it a shot.

Gracen Counts

7 / 31 / 127 / 31 / 12

For a long while now, Grae could count to 2 and would just continue saying, “One, two, one, two, one, two…” for sets of objects larger than a pair.  Just before we left on vacation, she added 3 into her repertoire, and while in the Okanagan she added 4 and 5.  It’s really incredible to ask your firstborn baby how many blueberries she has or how many markers there are and watch her count them up and proudly announce her answer.

How she grew up and learned all of these things so quickly is beyond me, but she can now count sets of things up to 7 on her own, and up to 9 if you help her with the number 8…
