October 2012

I updated Zoe's sizes. She is wearing at least a 5 in everything. She likes dresses very much. She could use: tights, dressy socks, & warm pajamas. She would also like some slippers, but it's hard to get shoes in the right size. She is wearing an 11 right now. It is a weird size that is between toddler & kid.

I edited the book list and added a couple more. We get books from the library and then she wants to keep them so I try to find good deals on Amazon when we come across something worth adding to our collection.

All of the toy suggestions are still valid. We haven't bought any of them over the past year and they are all still things that she would like to have. I saw a bicycle at Costco that we are going to get her. Any kind of art supplies, even a stack of white paper, is great.

Science kits are great to have - as long as they are age appropriate. Nothing toxic, flammable, or extremely messy. I do like the dinosaur digs & "gem" digs. Things that you put in water & watch grow. We could try one of these frog kits, too - they did this at preschool last year & then released it into a local pond. http://www.amazon.com/Dogs-Life-Caroline-R-Sherman/dp/0761462007/ref=sr_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1350577721&sr=1-5
