Forest Gifts

Yesterday, M discovered something hiding in the forest. 
"Look what I found! It was in a really secret spot!"



The Pine kids stood and watched in amazement at the gift they found hiding in the forest. 
"What was it doing there?"
"I think someone hid it in here."
"It was in a really secret spot!"

Today, we talked a little more about the heart in the forest over snack. 
"It has so many decorations on it!"
"We have to keep it in the classroom."
"Let's make a new heart for the forest."
"We can color it in the classroom and then take it to the forest."


"I think we can get another one. Maybe we can make some pine cones too, or find a rock to color."

The Pine friends decided they wanted to replace the gift in the forest with something new. 


They were fascinated to find something like a heart in the forest. They wondered how it got there and who put it there. Pine is looking forward to creating something new to replace the heart in hopes to carry on the legacy of forest gifts.

Instead of just talking about our own skin, the kids started talking about their families.  "Well, I have brown skin and so does my mom and my brother. My dad has white skin!"  "My mom and I are white, and my dad and sister are really tan!" "My family all has brown skin like me. My mom is a little different brown though. My baby sisters look like me!" We got out the skin tone colored crayons and the kids carefully chose the colors they needed to represent their families.  "I need the tan ones because I am kind of tan and so is my mom. My dad and sister are darker than us so I need to use like a darker brown. I need the black too because they have dark hair. I have brown hair and my mom has like brownish hair but it's also kind of yellow." S worked on her family portrait as well. She, too, noted that she needed different colored cra...
