D is for Dolphin


I decided to do a few little "preschool" type activities with the boys. Last month we learned about dolphins. They really thought this was fun. S was particularly interested in the dolphins. We made a little ocean out of a Sprite bottle and used blue food coloring. Then we blew up balloons and they were our dolphins. They really thought our little aquarium was awesome! We also made dolphin place mats and sugar cookies. My little chefs liked making the cookies so much we did it two different times. Then we ended by going to the aquarium. No dolphins--we'll make it to Sea World another time--but they LOVED petting the sting rays!
