Navigating the Forest

Now that the weather has cooled down, the Pine friends find our forest time much more enjoyable. The forest comes with many challenges... the paths are narrow, trees have fallen over, and the trees have made it dense and thick. Despite the physical obstacles, the Pine friends figured out different ways to get around. 

B wandered down the path caked with fallen leaves & mud. He pointed towards the large log and said, "Up!" \

B was determined to make it to the other side of the log. 




B walked over and looked above and below the log wondering how he was going to get to the other side. Just then, E walked over and ran into the same predicament... how will they get to the other side. 


Both E & B peaked over the top of the fallen log they realized it would be difficult to get on top. 

"It's high! I want to go over."





E made his way over to the other side of the log where he noticed some lower branches. E stepped up on the branch and began his climb over the log. 











Success! E made it over the log! 

"I did it!"

 Back on the other side of the log, B was still deciding how he wanted to get to the other side. He watched as a friend from Magnolia crawled underneath. B sat down and began to crawl underneath the log. 



B flawlessly executed his journey under the log. He made his way through the damp dirt on his hands and knees. The kids discovered two different ways to get over to the other side of the log! B was able to watch his peers and figure out a second way to navigate his way through the forest while E came up with his own idea on how to conquer the log. Two different experiences just a few feet away.

 It was a Ms Amy day!

Happy Wednesday

 How lucky are we that it was nice weather which allowed for much needed outside time!

Happy New Year!

 Hello Pine AM friends! It is so nice to see you guys again after 20 days! I hope everyone enjoyed the time off and maybe even a little fun in the snow. Today we only had 2 kiddos come to school which felt so strange but we made the best of it. We will be ready to fully jump back in the swing of things next week with new words IN and OUT, exploring our expanded Bakery and Cafe in our dramatic play area, reading stories about winter and hands on experiences with things that are cold.
