  1. I am impressed that you make workboxes work for both kids. I tried them once but I am too disorganized to keep them up. We should "visit" rainforest again one of these days.

  4. Good for you getting out all the hands on resources. That's my bugaboo area-meaning I'm working on it. I think it's great for the kiddos.
