Does anyone else feel like this week has flown by!? I can't believe it's already Thursday. To wrap up our busy week, we ended our day of play in the gym. The gym is a large space with a LOT of different choices to make. This can sometimes make things more challenging when it comes time for a child to make a decision on what he or she would like to do. One strategy we use in the Pine room is to limit the amount of choices in order for the kids to come to a decision on what they would like to play.
Both L & A have shown a lot of interest in playing with all kinds of different balls. Thankfully, we are fully prepared with just about any kind you can think of-inflatable, noisy, big, small, sticky, light up, you name it and we have it. So today it was easy for both of them to make a decision on what they wanted to do- the ball wall!
As the boys have now spent several months in the Pine room and have shown a lot of developmental growth, we are seeing much more purposeful play that's lasting for up to 10-15 minutes! This is so exciting to watch and be a part of! The Pine team is endlessly proud of what these boys do day to day and week to week. We are prepared and looking forward to take on the rest of this school year!
