Popular at Present

Abigail has finally gotten into books. Man oh man is she slower to fall in love with the written word than my boys were. But now that she is getting into them, she is definitely picking her few favorites and wanting to read them over and over again like they did when they first fell in love with books. Her current two favorites are:

 

 


I also must put on another plug for the Magna-tiles that my boys received as a gift about 6 weeks ago. They each got a 32-piece set and they have played with them every single day since receiving them. They are incredibly durable and so good for the imagination and learning. In addition, while it says they are a choking hazard, the likelihood is very low, and Abigail, while uninterested in them, holds them and throw them around frequently. They have been thrown, walked on, and fought over while suffering no apparent duress. I know they are very expensive, but I can guarantee you that your child will love them. I can vouch for the boys, but I have many friends with girls who have been equally enthralled by this little pieces of goodness.
 

I also have to recommend the "Portable North Pole" video again this year. This is completely free. If you want to see the one we made for Isaac, you can click here.  Click here to if you want to make a video yourself. It takes about five minutes. You answer a few questions about your child, download a photo, and Santa sends a personalized message to your little one. The look on their faces is priceless as you can see by this video we took of Sidge hearing Santa say his name.
