Artsy Thursday!

 We ended Week of the Young Child with Artsy Thursday! Today was so great to spend outside and create a more nature related art project. Before heading outside though, W took some time at the playdoh table to create some stacked playdoh balls. Very artsy! Once we headed outside and took a look around to see what kind of materials we could use to create a collaborative art piece. The only real obvious thing I saw were the dandelions. Have you ever scraped them across a surface? They leave a yellow pigment behind! The boys thought it was hysterical to be able to rub dandelions across the canvas and have yellow pigment magically appear! 

This week was so fun to celebrate these kids. Looking forward to continue to do so in the weeks to come.

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 :)

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.

All the fun

Today was not a typical day in the Pine room. We pulled out some new items to explore, had an impromptu dance party, capered, had a practice fire drill (during snack of all times) and ended out in the sunshine by the snail.  To our sick friends, we wish you well and hope to see you Monday! Have a great weekend :)
