“It is as though the poem, through its exuberance, awakened new depths in us. […] And this is also true of a simple experience of reading. The image offered us by reading the poem now becomes really our own. It takes root in us. It has been given us by another, but we begin to have the impression that we could have created it…[the image] becomes a new being…by making us what it expresses. […] Here expression creates being” (Bachelard).

Milk Jug Blackboard
I had to share our recent brilliant idea (and by "we", I mean my 3 year old and I). Permament Marker + Milk Jug = instant breakfast, lunch, and dinner reminder of concepts your kids are currently working on.
For example, we have been talking about notes (thank you mom and tot music class!). So, our milk has a quarter note, a half note, a whole note (in the circle indent side of the milk), and a whole rest. Since we get out our milk probably 5 or 6 times a day--this has been super fun. I imagine when the notes get boring we will try numbers, letters, shapes...who knows.
