Spring Cleaning

Is anyone else able to enjoy some of this warm spring weather?! I am trying my best to do so! One thing I have also taken the opportunity to do is clean! Spring cleaning is happening over at my house and it's been quite therapeutic to really take the time to rearrange, clean, and bring some fresh air into all of the rooms. 

Now that we are all at home, what a great opportunity it might be to take on a new project and clean up just one space at home. Everyone can help too! Young children often respond well to being a helper and often want to help an adult around the house. Providing a 'job' for your child can give them a sense of pride and belonging. 


In the video below, Ms. Julie shows you how cleaning can provide children with purposeful heavy work that may help with burning off some energy as well as giving kids some responsibility. 




I hope you all have a great Monday! As we head into the new week, remember to look for celebrations (the smallest of ones too!) and really celebrate them. Bring some joy into the parts of the day that may seem less joyful. 

Miss you all so much!

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.

Creek Time

  Happy Tuesday! We spent our entire afternoon out at Larson Park! It was definitely a hot one so when the kids heard we were going to get to play in the creek, they screamed in excitement. Not everyone wanted to stomp around in the shallow water and that was a-okay. Such a fun afternoon splashing around, exploring, and doing a great job sticking together as a class! 

Our week ends

 Happy Thursday Pine Family! Today we wrapped up with our magic words GET and WHAT and our centers. Next week will be brand new, maybe you can try to guess what we might be learning! Since it was very muddy on the hillside we did gross motor time inside and had fun exploring together in the gym. While we played, we also worked on our beautiful class project for the auction, hope you will all come bid on it! Can your kiddo remember how many friends we wished well today? Can they remember their names? We ended our day with story time and our "What filled your bucket today?" Have a great weekend!
