CSN Giveaway and Apple Activities

I have another surprise for you all! To show my THANKS to all my followers The CSN Store has offered one lucky reader a $35 gift certificate. This is a store that sells everything from Corelle to Mellisa and Doug to apple peelers. Just leave a comment below and join me on Facebook. This giveaway will be open until 10/2.

We have been using our apple peeler like crazy this year. The girls really enjoy using it too. We purchased a huge crate of seconds at the farmer's market to make applesauce, and freeze. The peppers were also included.

Olive enjoyed adding 100 apples to the tree in this math activity found here and here.

 Jem sorted apples by color, found here.

This and That

My birthday present has finally arrived! This lovely silver charm necklace from the Vintage Pearl has the names of my girl's and Buzz Lightyear (on the front side). I  love this necklace. It's the perfect way to carry your family with you and you can even add-on....if you family grows.

Olive and Jem also had fun with these snowman counting and sequence activities from Kidssoup. This is a site we subscribe to, but it's worth it for kids ages 3-7.
