Growing up mom and dad taught me many things - I remember little "tricks" that mom taught to help me learn things and remember them. I am realizing this now as I'm teaching Hailee the SAME tricks!
*using your thumb and index finger to determine left and right. Your left hand makes an "L". I see Hailee doing this sometimes...she WAS paying attention
*tying a square knot. with your ribbon: right over left and under....left over right and under. I use that in my scrapping and card making and Hailee is working on learning while she creates her masterpieces.
*How many days in each month. I still use my knuckles sometimes! I've shown this to Hailee but she's not quite there yet - but sometimes she'll ask me about one of the months just so I'll show her the trick!
*and from Tyler - Hailee knows this and now Braden is learning - the stop light song!!! 'Red means stop. Green means go. Yellow means caution, please go slow.'
I love that I can teach them the same things that were taught to me - and I hope they'll do the same!
