On Tuesday the kids played mailman...
They each got their own mailbox with address and then began writing and delivering letters. It was so cute.lol
Here's Allison working with Evie on her mailbox...
Here's Isaac writing his first letter...
Here's Isaac's box...
They had such a good time and have been playing with them everyday since. I've been putting all junk mail into their boxes whenever I get some and they love getting their own mail.lol
I've been working on our new schedule the past two weeks. Our next semester starts March 3rd and it's going to be a hum dinger for Allison. I'm revamping our Preschool rotations to include a Kindergarten rotation for Evie and I'm also going to add some different routines for each of us, hopefully to make the day go smoother. My days are going to begin at 7am sharp from now on, unless Sophia gets me up earlier.lol We're also going to be including Sophia in some of our activities now that she's getting older. It's taken me all this time to bang out a schedule that will work for US, instead of us working for IT.lol
We're going to incorporate circle time in the mornings for prayers, devotions, and getting our hearts ready for the day. I'm also going to be using general themes throughout each month to center our learning on. Our first theme of the year will be "Gardens."
I found this book called Making the Most of the Preschool Years by Bendt at the new homeschool store and I'll be using some of the ideas to incorporate new and fun activities in our day. I think things have been getting a little stale lately.lol
Well, I better get! These kids are busy today.lol

That all sounds great, Lisa. We are also revamping here, but mostly for the little girls. I just got LLATL for them and will be working with them together. I'm hoping this will work better and give me a bit more time.
Lisa, I hope your new schedules/palns/ideas will invigorate you. I love changes!
The mailboxes look like a LOT of fun!
The mailboxes are great.
I too enjoy new schedules and new beinnings.
I love these pictures! Your Allison is such a sweet big sis.
I love change too! It's always so nice to be able to put away all the stuff we've been doing for a whole year and bring out some fresh new things to work on.
The schedule is working nicely. I'm tired but everyone else is thriving!
