If a picture is worth 1,000 words...

...then here is my 4,ooo for today.

Chicken Run is at least 10 times her original size (she can no longer even fit into her tunnel!) and she is fully feathered!

Here is a timeline game I made, which we played today for the first time.

This is the sort of thing you would pay a hundred dollars for in a montessori shop! I paid about 20 dollars for the blue booklets (along with some yellow ones not pictured) and made all the other materials myself. I could have made the books as well, since they have the text in a free printable format online , but I bought cheap ink for my ink-guzzling epson CX6400 and now it won't print at all, anyway the ink cartridges for my model would run me about 55 bucks, so this was a bargain.

Here is a close-up of one of the cards. This one shows a trilobite, and some other ancient sea creatures.
