4 Year Check Up

For his birthday, Connor received a doctors kit that he has loved playing with.

Melissa & Doug Doctor Role Play

He makes his bedroom an office and sees all his stuffed animals as patients.  He can have hours of fun with this!

His love for the doctor came in handy when we had to go for his 4 year well check and get 3 shots.  Connor has been at the same pediatrician since he was born and has become very popular with the staff over the past year.  He flashes that smile at everyone and talks to whoever will listen.  As soon as we walk in he wants to greet all his friends.  He LOVES his pediatrician, maybe because she looks just like Sleeping Beauty. :)  We passed with flying colors, including his vision and hearing test.  He thought it was all fun and games until the needles showed up.  Thankfully the nurse was quick and Connor was very brave.  After the appointment we meet Cole for lunch.  It was such a special treat for Connor to have both of us to himself.  He just kept hugging and kissing us because he was so excited!

Connor is growing up so quickly and will start preschool before we know it!  I wanted to share another great gift Connor got for his birthday.  These DVDs are amazing!  Connor has watched these a few times throughout the past month and played the games that go along with it on our phones.  He knows almost every single word and has developed such an interest in learning to read.  

Preschool Prep Meet the Sight Words

Here is a short video of him reading a beginning reader book.

I wrote down some of the sight words from the videos so he could show how much he has learned.

These videos would also be great for school age children who aren't a fan of flashcards, but need help learning those basic sight words.  You should check them out!
