Morgan Hill Library
I'm not sure about you but I've always been a little hesitant to take my two year old to the library. We go to BookSmart and Barnes but have always thought about the library as a "too quiet" of a place to go.

Creative and Easy Advent Calendar
Here is a very cute idea that a fellow mommy came up with!
Advent calendars are everywhere right now. You can easily buy one but I bet its not as cute or as clever as this one!
All thats required is 25 squares of paper, marker, 25 cut our circles and glue
Step 1: Take a circle and write the #1 on it
Step 2: Glue it to the center of one of the squares
Step 3: On the back of the square think of something to do, eat, etc and write it on the back so that on December 1st that gets done. For example, maybe on the 1st of December they can read a story about Santa.
Repeat these steps for all 25 days counting up to Christmas. The hardest part is coming up with the 25 things but the greatest part is that you can adapt it to any age group to make it fun!
You can store these cards in an old recipe box you probably have in your pantry. Just pull one out each day and your child will be looking forward to the next activity to help them countdown the holidays!
This activity can help with counting, listening and many other skills!
Here are pictures that detail the steps mentioned above.
Thank you Lara for sharing!

Preschool
IF you are interested in preschools, we are approaching the time to decide which one to attend.You will drive yourself crazy trying to consistently provide a structured program of kid centered activities for your child all day long!
Preschool helps your child make the transition into a world of people and experiences on top of all the great learning that will occur. It can also be great because you can be confident that your child is doing something beneficial while you have a guilt-free way to grab some hours for yourself.

Catch Me If You Can
As the story goes...
Once upon a time a little old woman and a little old man lived in a cottage. One day the little old woman made a gingerbread man. She gave him currants for eyes and cherries for buttons. She put him in the oven to bake.
The little old woman and little old man were very hungry and wanted to eat the gingerbread man. As soon as he was cooked, the little old woman opened the oven door. The gingerbread man jumped out of the tin and ran out of the open window shouting, 'Don't eat me!'The little old woman and little old man ran after the gingerbread man.
'Stop! Stop!' they yelled.The gingerbread man did not look back. He ran on saying,'Run, run as fast as you can! You can't catch me, I'm the gingerbread man!
