Playdoh Exploration

T walked over to the table full of playdoh and took a seat. He grabbed a huge hunk of playdoh and started squeezing it between his fingers and smashing it between his palms. He smiled as the dough oozed between the cracks of his fingers.

T played in the dough with just his hands for awhile before he noticed the basket of tools sitting in front of him. His face lit up when he saw the different cookie cutters.

"Tree!"

He picked up the tree and smashed it straight into the playdoh.

L picked up the star and began singing quietly to herself

"Twinkle twinkle little star..."

and then pushed it into her mound of dough. She laughed as she stamped the stencil into the playdoh repeatedly, noticing how the stars began to overlap one another creating a different pattern with the star shape.

The two continued to work across the table from one another passing tools to one another, joining in on songs like "twinkle twinkle little star," and just enjoying the calming play.

Week 2 Day 2

Pine Family is rocking and rolling in week 2! We are having less feelings of sad, mad, and scared upon entering class and more happy and fun throughout the day! Friendly reminders: Water bottles should only come to school filled with water (it's the best for our bodies and in case another student would accidently take a sip it won't cause harm), sunscreen should be applied before drop off (there is not a lot of shade and not a lot of time for us to get the kiddos all lathered up), and bug spray should be applied before drop off (this is mostly needed when we start going to the forest on Tuesdays, starting on Sept 12th). Thanks :)

the end is near

Today was so much fun! We were missing some of our teachers but we had a blast together in PJs playing with Cicadas! Tomorrow (WED) is birthday celebration: wear blue, Bluey, letters Thurs is water day! We will have a have a sprinkler, a baby pool, and other water related fun. Please have your kiddo in their suit, water friendly shoes, and sunscreen! Also make sure to bring a towel and dry clothes to clean up with at the end. (If your child is in a diaper/pull-up, please make sure to SEND a water diaper and we will put on right before we get wet!!!)

You need to wear your suit, water friendly shoes, sunscreen already applied, water bottle, towel and dry clothes to change into!
