Mud Kitchen

 There are some weeks we can't go to the forest simply because of weather. Today, however, we forwent going to the forest so the boys could play in an area we don't typically spend much time in, the mud kitchen!

Since the boys have really shown expanding play skills we figured the mud kitchen would be a nice change.

It was quite successful! As soon as the door of the kitchen opened up, the boys began exploring. They got out pots, pans, muffin tins, bowls, spoons, and cups to begin their pretend play.

How could they make a propeller? What does a propeller look like? The kids got to work on some research about wh...

Happy March

 Pine Family, welcome to March! It was an eventful day for us with Ms. Julie coming to visit for center time, a tornado drill, a birthday, and met a new friend Oliver! Of course we practiced our new words put and where. We also made sure to enjoy the gorgeous weather today by pulling on some boots and stomping in the mud. To end our wonderful Tuesday we wished Logan a very happy 5th birthday!
