Pick-A-Trick Matching Letters And Sounds!

This is a product that we have recently started using in our home. The kids love it because it is a game but I love it because they are having fun while learning!

I have taken some pictures of a few of the different activities and features on the game. I bought this from Lakeshore Learning. My wish list is long, very long but I try to wait until I find a coupon code or a sale and use them to my advantage. They have a lot of products for just about every homeschool style/need you may have.

This first pictures are just the front/back of the case. You can see the basics and the skills that are targeted with this game.

 

These are pictures of the lesson. It goes through the alphabet and gives them a basic introduction to the Uppercase and Lowercase letters.

 

Once they finish with the lesson they can choose an activity to do:

This is Lowercase to the Uppercase activity. There are instructions to play in the beginning too, if you need them.

Once they have completed three rounds they can choose a trick for the bear to do.

The 3 year old got a little impatient but he enjoyed getting through his lesson to see the trick.

This is on the 2nd level and matches the Uppercase to the starting sound. This is an area where my DS14(special needs) really needs help.

He helped the 3 year old with this screen. They took turns back and forth. Teamwork is important too!

This is a feature that I really like. I can print out the report to put into portfolios and to help me see the areas they may need more help with.

All in all my kids are really enjoying this and they are learning. It is important for us to incorporate a variety of different activities so each child is eager to learn.

I hope you enjoyed this product and I will continue to post about other products and activities that we are using.

Cheesy Chicken and Potatoes Casserole

I don’t know where I found the original recipe for this but it has been a hit here for sure. Serve it with a salad to round out the meal. My kids really like to use ranch on this as well. Continue reading “Cheesy Chicken and Potatoes Casserole”

Popover Pizza

This is a favorite of my second oldest. It is pretty simple to make and you can add a variety of meats and/or toppings to it to make it even better. I usually serve this with a simple salad to complete the meal. Continue reading “Popover Pizza”

Easy Banana Pudding

This is an easy dessert that my whole family loves, especially grandpa. There are so many different variations of banana pudding that I usually just make it the easiest way I can.

The kids really enjoy helping to put this together and sometimes add a few sprinkles to the top to make it extra special. They can slice the bananas with a butter knife and layout the vanilla wafers. I just have to keep an eye on them to make sure they don’t eat all of the cookies. I also like to put the pudding mix and milk in a container with a tight lid and let them take turns shaking the pudding. Continue reading “Easy Banana Pudding”

These are some of the activities and products that I use with my littles and with my special needs son.
