Slow Sliding

 The rain never stops us from enjoying ourselves outside! Although we typically go to the forest on Wednesdays, we opted to play out on the playscape instead. The slide/rock box is one of their favorite sections to play in so we figured we would take advantage. As you can imagine most everything was soaking wet so after the kids put some rain boots and jackets on we were ready to go. 

All of the kids were quite excited to go down the slide, but because of the dampness, they slid down going in slow motion! It was hilarious because the kids would quickly climb up the stairs or rocks, sit down, prepare for a slick ride, and then just stop in the middle or barely move down. We were cracking up and it didn't seem to bother anyone!

Most of them said "stuck" or "slow" to describe their sliding experience today. I honestly think it made more of the kids want to slide down because they weren't going down as fast as they normally were! 


T is one kid in particular that usually flies down the slide no matter how hard he tries to control his speed. Fortunately the condition of the slide played to his advantage and he was able to go down in a slow and controlled manner. He was quite happy 😊

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 :)

Happy First Day of School 24-25!

 Welcome Pine Families to our 24-25 school year! We were so happy to have your kiddos with us today. Check out the fun we had :)

Day 2 Pine room fun!

Today we spent more time getting to know each other and exploring our spaces. For our invitations we have our small world were we can tell stories about what our families like to do outside. In our dramatic play we are showing how we can care for others, including our baby dolls. Outside we are checking out how fun our giant snail and mud kitchen are.
