Green Around the Gills


Nobody loves bath time more than Buby! Except Graga (Granny M.). She's crazy into her baths. Soaking is sacred. Maybe that's where Buby got the water gene. (We even use hardcore Aquafor ointment to moisturize his dry legs after.)

Tub time is another prime opportunity to practice our letters and sounds (and layups--hoop #4 is, that's right, in the tub). The alphabet sticks to the sides when damp and looks cool against the water thanks to Crayola's rainbow of Tub Tints. Mama posts a letter, yells out its color and the first three words that come to mind beginning with that letter. It can get a little goofy, but one MUST not cheat Gavin out of his three new words. If Mama's really up for a challenge, she specifies a category. QUICK: Three things on a playground that start with 'Z'. See... not so easy. And this from Editor Girl and Master of Scattegories!

Great picture! Where did you get the letters? We have numbers, but I'd love to get some letters soon - I'm getting tired of counting all the time!
