The weather outside has been pretty cold and dreary lately. We've been trying to think of things to do inside to beat boredom. Avery loves to be read to, but we've probably flipped through almost every book in the house that has colorful pictures and sometimes the weather doesn't allow us to make it to the library. We came up with a new toy that seems to be holding Avery's attention: a cookie sheet with magnetic alphabet letters. I've discovered that Avery is a visual/hands-on learner, and he also has had an interest in naming the alphabet. Sometimes he just likes to group the letters according to their color. It amazes me how the simplest things holds his fascination.
