I love that little squirrel on the book cover. He just looks like trouble.
Great idea to do some measuring.
Measuring I never thought of that idea..O.K. another cool idea to do with Ben… Yardstick ~ ruler here we come…or acorns.. I’ll have to go to library to see if they have that book..Orrrr maybe I have something here at the house that will work…
Thanks for all your wonderful ideas…I get so excited when I see something new that I can teach Ben.. Grandchildren are so fun~! I love it..Just wish I would of had you when my children were young… but I’ll take you now ~ now that I have grandchildren..

Great activities! I’m in a hurry right now, but I’ll link to you tonight.
What a great activity! I love the idea of finding the numbers on a yard stick – I’m definitely going to save this idea for a rainy day.
Visiting from Free For AlL Friday! Didn’t see you as a follower! Following you 🙂
Well, the prettiest acorns ARE blue!
You always think outside the box to make learning come alive for your son, I just love that!
Such fun activities. I saw that Michael’s had this big bundle of foam acorns for sale. That would have been cute to hide. I was going to buy them, but then I thought why would I buy a pack of 20 something, when I would only use 1 or 2 of them.
I’ve been thinking how fun it would be to buy something like those bundle packs they sale and take what I would need and use and then post about all the extras that I had and offer to give them or exchange them with someone else. How cool would it be to find a few friends or a small online group of buddies to exchange stuff like that with….that way everyone could benefit. Wouldn’t that be neat?
I’m passing by from Mom Loop. I can tell you that this activity definitely fosters literacy skills. It is really important that children associate letters and sounds with images and things that they can visualize. My experience as a Reading Teacher gives this activity an A+
These are great activities!
Neat activities! Mine love doing things related to acorns too. Thanks for popping by my blog. Will have to link up to your blog hop when I write a post this weekend. Happy Saturday!

Thanks for stopping by my blog. Looks like you and your son did some fun activities. I am linking up to you 🙂
I love using books as a springboard to other activities. Who knew acorns were so versatile?
That is funny~ squirrels really do forget where they hide their stash. Sounds like a cute story! Great tie-in’s too!
Thanks for hosting!
We are enjoying playing with measuring at the moment as well.
Good luck with your meme, would be great if you could include the link back to We Play in your post as well.
I hear blue acorns are cool now:)
Thanks for joining WMCIR! We read some other books by Kevin Sherry – this one sounds lovely. Happy Thanksgiving!
I love this idea. Huge fan of this approach with kids. Really like your blog.
New follower:)
Have a great week
