Escuela con Papi

Daddy school day.

We started with a writing lesson using the letter ñ, including pronouncing a couple words with ñ in them (año and mañana).

Then we went outside to play and only spoke Spanish. We played on bikes, in and on my truck, with some bungee cords, etc. After a brief pause, we went to the backyard to play, again, all in Spanish.

Amy did okay at keeping it in Spanish, but mostly I was asking her "como se dice esto en español?" (How do you say that in Spanish?) She did pretty well, really.

We played Frisbee a good bit. We would stand in hula hoops and try to throw it to each other without having to leave the hula hoop. At first Amy wasn't catching much at all, but then she started getting the hang of it, and by the end, most of her throws were close enough I could get them in the hula hoop! And she was catching probably a third or more of the throws! I was very impressed with her!

We also played "round and round the Eliza girl, the Papi jumped-on-the-tramp-oline, the Papi thought it was all in fun 'till POP goes Eliza!" It was fun.

Then Amy asked what a weasel was, so we talked about it, looked some pictures up on the computer, and that was it!

...and I found out I don't know how to say scooter in Spanish. :)
