I found this lovely bucket-o-cookies at Safeway
and couldn’t help but snatch them up.
and couldn’t help but snatch them up.
Our snack time yesterday was strictly:
If you can spell it - You can eat it!
My 8 yr-old thought this was hilarious.
My 5 yr-old looked at me as if I had just told
a slightly offensive joke.
Both boys started with their names and then
ventured off into new territory.

This activity has its downfalls, of course:
the longer the word,the longer you have to wait
to eat the cookies;
Both boys side-stepped this dilemma by
focusing to the ever-popular three letter words.

Although my youngest son was nervous
at the start of this activity,
all those yummy chocolate letters were pretty
convincing motivation. He gained confidence quickly.
He even helped me spell a few words of my own…
and then sweetly offered to help me eat them.
