Cc is for Cookie

Today, we continued learning about the Letter Cc.  We did quite a bit of work in Evan's Cc Lapbook.  He glued on lots of little Cc pictures.  We played a little 'Counting with Cc' game, and he practiced writing the Letter Cc.

Today we learned that Cc is for Cookie!  Evan has really enjoyed learning about the Letter Cc - carrot cake, and now cookies!  Who wouldn't love that?!  I had checked out a couple books about cookies from the library and we read those together.  He loved a little story called, "The Little Cookie" by Margaret Hillert.  It was basically the Gingerbread Man retold.  He wanted me to read it over and over and over.  I don't know how many times we read that book!  I also taught him the "Who took the cookies from the cookie jar?" song.  Then he painted a little picture of a cookie to go in his lapbook.  He wanted his cookie to look like the cookie from the story.

Then we made chocolate chip cookies!  I went the easy route this time and just bought the prepared cookie dough.  He still thought it was awesome.  I broke the little dough squares apart and Evan did the rest.  He nibbled the edge off of every dough piece before putting it down on the pan!  Everytime he picked up a new piece, he would say, "Maybe I'll just go ahead and eat this one!" 


Making (and eating) cookies!

Evan couldn't wait for the cookies to get done.  He enjoyed them with a glass of milk!
