Let’s Play: Melissa and Doug – Cutting Food: Wooden Play Food and Cutting Fruit Set

learningwithmaddy

My daughter played with these sets at her cousin’s house and couldn’t get enough of them. I gave in and got her two of the sets from Melissa and Doug (Cutting Food and Cutting Fruit). Both sets are made of wood and come with a wooden knife. After watching her play with this for a while (a long while – she LOVES these!) I came up with some other ideas on how you can teach through play using these cutting sets. Imitation – Teach your child how to cut the different types of food by simply showing them how to … Continue reading Let’s Play: Melissa and Doug – Cutting Food: Wooden Play Food and Cutting Fruit Set

We Survived the Terrible 2’s

learningwithmaddy

I remember a year ago on her birthday it was like she knew she turned TWO and she had to be terrible. It was a switch that turned on and has lasted until… now. We survived though! I now have a big bad THREEnager. We’re still a work in progress. She has taught me patience I never knew I had and she continues to test me daily. She’s the complete opposite of everything I thought she would be – because she’s the complete opposite of ME. She’s not a pushover, she’s not shy, and she will NOT back down. This … Continue reading We Survived the Terrible 2’s
