Mateo loves trains (or as he calls them "Choo-choos"). Lately he has been lining everything (coins, toys, cards) up and calling it a train. This day he lined up some boxes and took his animals for a ride.
Hey he sounds like my son. He calls everything lined up a train. We just made a rainbow using cut up paint chips and as he glued them in rows he kept calling them "tren rojo, tren verde", neat!
I use Capri Sun boxes for teacher made blocks. I have several little guys who are crazy about trains----I might have to turn some of the blocks into trains! Great idea!
Your activities you did for your China theme are fantastic. I am also enjoying using themes as a way to focus and prepare our activties for at least a week.
This is soooo cute, isn't that funny how every boy will hit the "train stage" my two year old is fascinated by trains, he makes tracks out of everything :)
I am the lucky mother of two wonderful little boys. My husband and I are both fluent Spanish speakers and are raising our boys bilingual in Spanish and English. I moved to teaching part-time high school Spanish when I had my last child so that I could spend more time with my boys.
That is so cute!
ReplyDeleteHe totally follows his older brother in creativity. This is pretty neat for his age.

ReplyDeleteAw very cute photo of your little boy! My baby has a cardboard train as well.
ReplyDeleteAwww, my kids line up chairs to do this, Mateo's version is much easier to move around.
