Sophie and I have been reading the creation story and working on the letter A and the number 1.
She loves the creation story and giggles when we talk about Adam's job {to name all the animals} because he picked some silly names. {aardvark and crocodile seem to really make her laugh!}
We colored with white crayons on white paper and then painted over it with black paint to make the white lines show up - we had a blast with that! We've also painted the letter A red {like apples} and worked with cutting and pasting.
Today we are making an alligator out of an A - complete with google eyes :) Can't wait to see her giggle about those!!
Now, I have a question for YOU:
Sophie has colored, drawn, painted, and eaten with her left hand for over a year. This week, when we started working on letter writing - she's trying to use her right hand....and now she's not holding crayons or paintbrushes correctly??!
Do I push her to use her left hand, or wait and see what she does? I don't want it to become an issue, and I'm a little confused as to the switch? Any thoughts?
