Earlier that day we had watched _Word World_, a show on PBS Kids. We no longer get PBS at our house since the Digital TV switch, so the was the first time I'd seen the show. I was really impressed! They used the root word "-oat" and then made different words from that. Grandma Smits had flashcards with letters on them, so I got Koen playing a game creating new words out of different root words. We used -oat, like in the show, -in,-ig, -an, -age, and a few others. We made some real words and some non-words which he had no problem recognizing. He had more fun with this game than with the bean bag toss!

I have the plans to make a set, just haven't gotten around to it yet. Maybe, after painting is done. Dad
