Our first big chapter book was "The Indian in the Cupboard". After we finished the book, we had a book themed "nearly sleepover". A "nearly sleepover", involves all the happenings of a sleepover, without the sleeping over part! So, Lil G and his friend, J, played together, had dinner, did crafts, made a Native American themed dessert, put on jammies and watched the movie of "Indian in the Cupboard". After movie time, J headed home. The kiddos even enjoyed an indoor campfire, courtesy of a bundle of Christmas lights! All the kids had a great time and we look forward to having many more book themed nearly sleepovers in the future!

The Indian in the Cupboard party
One of the things we have been focusing on this year in Kindergarten is reading readiness for Lil G. At first, we embarked on trying to learn to read but soon it became apparent that Lil G needed a little more time. So, I pulled back and we began focusing on letter recognition and reading lots of books.
