"The Little Red Lighthouse...



Our most recent adventure in learning has taken us to the shore of the Hudson River in New York City. We're having so much fun with this one that we've stretched it over 2 weeks. Last week we focused on lighthouses, and the boys created these lighthouses of their own. Ian came up with the "paint scheme" for his all on his own. He suprised me by getting out a ruler and carefully measuring out each stripe. Another great book we discovered along the way was "Abbie against the storm"--gripping true story and amazing art! Check it out at your local library (we practically live at ours!)
