Whew!

I think it took at least 4 hours, spread out over two days.

Anna's room was overflowing with stuff. Tiny toys, dress up clothes, books, papers, pencils, crayon bits, ribbon bits, fabric bits, lots of bits. She had taken to shutting her door before I got home from school and telling me NOT to go in there, it was a MESS!

But we're all cleaned up now. Baby things to the basement, dress up clothes corralled, tiny toys sifted...a place for everything and everything in it's place...

Ahh, books sorted...

And now Anna's snuggled up with the most wonderful thing in the world. Books on tape. This little tape player entertained Abby for hours, and now Anna's using the same one, and the same tapes I made for Abby when she was little. Guilt-free entertainment.


But when I google "Fisher Price Tape Player" Amazon gives me instead this and this. Not the same at all.

We had that Fisher Price player too! Books on tape are a wonderful way to learn new words and increase reading skills.
