Emily was in school today, so I had Alli and Keira to myself. Keira, thankfully took a long morning nap, so I had some one on one time with Alli. She was in a bit of a mischievous mood, which isn't unusual but made it harder to keep her entertained. We did a lot of activities, and of course she never really does what you expect, which is fine, I just let her do her own thing and she seems to enjoy herself. By the time Keira woke up, I was feeling pretty tired, and in need of a break, so I let them eat and watch some TV before we had to go pick Emily up for ballet.  |
| So I finally set up the jungle table. I know it's pretty inaccurate, especially the animals, but I figure the girls don't really care at this point. It's just about having fun. |
 |
| I originally wanted to do animal prints in the clay, and I showed that to Alli, but she was way more interested in just playing with it especially once I gave her water. |

| She really wanted to use some paint, which reminded me of something I saw on Pinterest with paint and animal tracks, so I hooked her up with a few animals and construction paper and she went to to town. |
 |
| Of course then they had to get washed in the water left over from the cornmeal activity we did earlier |
 |
| Doing animal tracks in Play Doh |
 |
| This activity was supposed to be letter tracing in cornmeal, but she was not at all interested in that. I took the letter out, and added animals which she liked much better. |
 |
| Animal Matching activity, she got most of the animals right, but not all the bodies on straight. :) |
 |
| Another view. I had her glue the pieces on, so many are upside down, lopsided etc. lol! |
 |
| But she really enjoyed this one too bad I only had one sheet. |
 |
| This is supposed to be a cut out mask, which she colored (sort of), I haven't actually cut the mask out yet. |

| Jungle Play Doh mat That's all for today!! |
