Letter Weeks Kk and Ll

As were all the weeks of the summer, weeks Kk and Ll were no different. One exciting thing that did happen during week Kk, was that Babycake's Aunt Kelly came to visit. It was fun to see Babycake try to comprehend a person (or their name) beginning with a letter. I don't think she got it, but she went along with it and got excited b/c we were excited. 

For week Kk, we read books about kites, kangaroos, koalas, kings, and knights. Babycake loved reading about the animals, and most of our kite books involved Curious George so that was exciting. However, she didn't really get what a king was, and talking about a knight, but not night time and bedtime and darkness instead of light really threw her for a loop. It was a little funny to watch the confusion and misunderstanding while I attempted to make sense of it to my two year old. 

Our crafts here (sorry for the bad shot!) coloring a kite, and having Aunt Kelly draw one on a scrap of paper, create a kangaroo from the letter K, and color a K and koala and glue the koala on so it can climb the K.

For letter week Ll, we read books about lions, lambs, lobsters, and lamps. Did you know there aren't many childrens books about lamps? hmmm. Yeah, I just got a book with tons of pictures of different lamps from the regular section of the library. That was interesting enough for a two year old.
Here are our crafts of a lamp. lamb, lobster (this one was really exciting) and a lion (also super exciting to roar all day like a lion).
