What I Made in the Kitchen

I'll be honest, some days I am very bored and can't always think of something to do. Like all of you, I am staying home to stay healthy and I don't always want to. I wish I could go for a hike, go to library, or even just go to a favorite store to go shopping. It just isn't an option right now. My mom was a huge influence for today's video. She always reminded me that it wasn't a bad thing to be bored and often told me to "figure it out" when I complained. She always told me there were plenty of things to do, I just had to go looking for them. In this video, I did exactly that!

I am so thankful for the times I was bored growing up and still even as an adult. It forces me to slow down and really think about what I can do even when I think there isn't anything to do. I am thinking about you all and hope you too are staying safe and well, even if you are a little bored 😊

Welcome back

Happy Tuesday! I hope you enjoyed your extra long weekend together but glad to see you all today. We changed out our word of the week, ask your kiddo if they remember what it is (PUT). At centers we continued exploring small world and our bakery. We opened the sensory table again and some faux snow and polar animals which was a big hit! We also changed out our gross motor center, changing out our obstacle course (crawl through tunnel, jump 10 times on the trampoline, and (steam)roll or summersault on the mat) for some thing new. Ask your kiddo if they tried to scoop the snowball, carry it across the balance beam and PUT it on the snowman.

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 :)

so close now....

Can you believe that we only have one more day together this school year? Today we celebrated the second to last day with a summer bday celebration. We also revealed our tie dyed shirts! (we only did a light rinse, beware that colors will run when you wash!!) TOMORROW: WATER DAY! You need to wear your suit, water friendly shoes, sunscreen already applied, water bottle, towel and dry clothes to change into!
