Capers

Another Thursday in the books! Today the Pine kids had yet another opportunity to explore Magnolia and Dogwood and the various invitations they prepared. It's enjoyable to watch the kids choose between so many different activities and interact with with their peers from the other rooms. They show their ability to thrive outside of the Pine class and dive a little deeper into both new and familiar activities. 


S spent some time making bracelets with beads and pipe cleaners. Making bracelets and necklaces was a huge hit with the kids a few days ago so S was very happy to see another classroom with beads! 


J enjoyed building mini cities and homes for LEGO people in Magnolia. She shared toys, laughs, and her playful imagination with some other friends. 


W enjoyed her time playing in the collaboratory where she is mastering her balancing, jumping, and turn taking! She navigated the obstacle course with ease and played hard with the others. 


F got to see how the Magnolia kids used paint brushes this week. During this more whole body painting experience, F was able to swing the paint brush from a fishing line to create long sweeps of paint and dots of different colors. 


F, M, & J worked together to build with the LEGOs. They took turns placing each piece in just the right spot to create a house for their people. 

The Pine kids love to be able to spend time with peers from other classes in different spaces. They look forward to it every week!

Day 2 Pine Room Fun!

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.

Rainbow Snow!

  The Pine kids wrapped up their week with playing in the snow! Unfortunately, it is just a wee bit too cold to be playing outside. I do appreciate all of the kids wearing snow boots, coats, hats, and gloves though! It's helpful for the days in which we do decide to take a quick walk around the block 😊 Instead of playing in the snow outside, we brought it inside! Snow is fun to play in, but we couldn't really build a snowman, throw it around, or make snowballs.. what could we do?! Then it dawned on us, let's paint it! We got out some water colors, eye droppers, and a big pile of snow and the kids went to town. They used their knowledge of mixing colors to create new ones as they dropped them onto the white snow.  "It's so cold!" "Look, look, I am making it pink!" "It's blue snow!" They giggled and laughed as the slow melting snow absorbed the bright vibrant colors. It hardly looked like snow anymore! This was a great way to incorporate...
