Big list of things that start with letter I

Toddler Letters – “K” is for “Kiwi”

 

Letter K Craft - Toddler/Preshooler letter of the week craft K is for Kiwi with related craft, tracing sheets and fruits/vegetables.

Supplies Needed:

Toddler/Preshooler letter of the week craft K is for Kiwi with related craft, tracing sheets and fruits/vegetables.

  • Colored Craft Paper
  • Letter “K” Cutout
  • Elmer’s Glue
  • Glue Stick
  • Scissors
  • Marker
  • Toilet Paper Roll
  • Yellow Circle Stickers
  • Small Seeds/Spices (We Used Flax Seed)

Set Up:

I cut out our “K” ahead of time. We stared by smashing a toilet paper roll flat and cutting it into small circle strips, then unflattening it so we had little brown circles. We then glued our brown circles to our “K” and put a circle of glue stick glue inside each circle.  As soon as we had a little bit of glue inside one of the toilet paper roll circles we put down a yellow sticker in the middle of it then did a pinch of seeds on top of it (so that our seeds would stick to the area around the sticker yet inside of the brown circle). We let it dry, then carefully shook our loose seeds into the sink before gluing our K to the craft paper.

We finished by eating a kiwi together and talking about different kinds of seeds and why fruits and vegetables have seeds in them.  This would also have been a great opportunity to plant something and grown it our window, but I didn’t think about that until after the fact.

Fantastic, Little Known, Cambridge Parks – 5 Things to Know About Heritage Rose Park

Heritage Rose Park is such a fun place to visit during the summer.  They’ve got a great splash pad dotted with raised piping that sprays outwards, perfect for toddlers.  There is a great gated playground with slides, swings, and a climbing gym and best of all there are so many activities that go on at the park all summer long!

Fantastic, Little Known, Cambridge Parks - 5 Things to Know About Heritage Rose Park

This past summer every day from 11:30-12:30 there was a free lunch (like something you would get in a elementary school cafeteria) available for any child under the age of 18. On different days of the week there were different activities going on all summer long such as “Arts in the Park” and “Book Bike”.  (You can read more about Book Bike here, but know that it’s an awesome summer program that goes park to park during the summer providing both activities and free books for kids).

Things to Note:

1) Parking
There is street parking and metered parking in the area, but I think you have to have a Cambridge Resident sticker to use it.

2) Stroller Friendliness
Totally stroller friendly.

3) Water Feature
Great water area with raised, chest high sprayers that sprit in all directions.  Also the spray park is in a different area from the playground so you can bring you kids and still play at the playground without worrying about them getting wet if you don’t want them to.

4) Green Space
This park has a really nice grassy field, perfect for field games.  In fact during the summer there is a “Get up and Move” crew that often has field games going and is there to encourage anyone who is interested to join in.

5) Benches and Chairs
There are a bunch of benches surrounding the splash pad and a few tables located in the playground area.  There isn’t great shade in any of the places with tables/chairs so you’ll have to choose if you’d rather be in a real seat or sitting on the ground in the shade to enjoy you activities.

Summary and Rating: ★★★★☆

Four Stars.  I think this is great park, I love the splash area and the summer programs probably make it a five star park, the only pit fall is that all summer long this place is also swamped with day care kids, so there are tons of little ones running around which can be a overwhelming.  The day care kids all seem to clear out at about 11:30 but for us there was always a cross over and little bit of chaos which was both good (more kids to play with) and bad (more kids everywhere).

Have you been here before?  If so I’d love to know more about your experience and any tips or tricks you have in the comments section below.

Review – Pacific Baby World 3-1 Insulated Toddler Travel Cup

We live in Boston, and since we live in a big city parking in most places is a nightmare.  We often end up taking public transportation and do a lot of walking. Summers here are hot and I often get concerned about how my son is going to handle being out in the warm weather. I sunscreen him up, he wears a hat and I try to keep him in the shade, but it’s still so hot.

I want to be able to get as much liquid into him as possible and I’ve found the Pacific Baby all-in-one cups to be a pretty amazing addition to our summer outings.  Not only are they super versatile but the are amazing at keeping drinks cold. Ice cold. In fact, if I add ice to his drink, 4 hours later there are still ice cubes in his cup… Pretty fantastic right?

Here is a brief summary of the benefits of a Pacific Baby Cup:
  • They keep drinks cold or hot for up to 7 hours! 
  • They are a great transition cup and you can upgrade it to meet the needs of your child simply by switching out the mouthpiece on the cup; they have bottle, sippy cup, and straw tops. 
  • They are environmentally friendly (and you only need one cup for a baby through a 5 year old).
  • It’s made out of stainless steel which is good for sanitation. 
  • It’s super easy to clean by hand and they are dishwasher safe.

    My son never took a bottle, so we didn’t end up using the default top that came with the cup and instead we went straight for the sippy cup top. My boy loved it. It’s soft and flexible, easy to drink from and the cup really is amazing at keeping a drink cold… like to the point I’m a little bit jealous of it. I also love that it comes with lid to cover the sippy cup spout and I can add hand grips to the side if I want them.

    This cup seemed perfect for a few months… and then we noticed a few slight drawbacks. First there was a day I filled up the cup, didn’t bother putting the handles on it and handed it off to my son. About five seconds later he was screaming bloody murder because it had slipped out of his hand and smashed his foot.  I believe it hurt. These cups are really sturdy.
    The spout on the sippy cup is really easy to invert but kind of a pain to pop back out (and toddler will play with anything they can get their hands or mouth on so our gets inverted fairly often.) The sippy cup top is also really flexible which means my son can easily push the whole spout into the cup if he’s playing with it… which of course makes a mess.

    And finally, we found that straw top is not quite as good as the other two tops at keeping liquid in.  If I have the cup in the side holder of my backpack and it’s got the straw top on it I can expect to have a slight amount of leakage if I don’t keep my backpack upright (the other I could flip in circles and they didn’t leak a drop.)


    Pros: 

    • Durable Bottle
    • Fantastic Insulator 
    • Changeable tops resulting in less clutter and the need for fewer cups
    • Customizable
    • Washable

    Cons: 

    • Heavy
    • Sippy cup top is a little too flexible
    • Straw top is more prone to leaks (though it does have a great built in cover)
    • Price

    All in all it’s been a great bottle to have over the summer, and I’m looking forward to being able to use it this winter as well.  I can recommend it as a good product and I think it’s worthing having something that can keep your toddlers drink (especially if that drink is milk) cold even when it’s 90 degrees outside.
