Rainy Day Blues

Good morning, everyone! 

I don't know about all of you, but this cloudy weather is really making me feel quite tired and a little stir crazy. As much as I love a good thunderstorm or some rain, I also really love being able to be outside in the sunshine. Unfortunately, I don't think that's in the forecast this week. However, Ms. Margie and Toffee found a way to beat these rainy day blues! 

This activity is so easy to create just from some materials you may have at home! Ms. Margie was able to use some extra salt she had in her cabinet, but you could use a number of different things to draw in. You could try sand, shaving cream, or even dry rice! 


I wonder what letters you can make? Can you try and spell your name? What about drawing a picture?! 

If you want to use rice, and have a lot of it to spare, you can even dye the rice! In the beginning of the year our kids from the afternoon class helped dye the rice different colors using a little bit of rubbing alcohol and some food coloring!

 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.
