Forest Games

 It has been so nice to soak up some of the last few warm days we may see this year. They have really made for some wonderful forest days- no bugs, no cold, no mud. It's simply perfect! Because we have been able to visit the forest every week since the beginning of school, the kids usually end up doing similar things week to week. They find their favorite log to climb on, or their favorite path to run down, and lately a lot of them have been engaging in the same games. 

In this short video below, L & O are playing a fun game of tag! Between tag and hide and go seek it's so hard to keep up with all of them these days! They are extremely fast and can dodge in and out of the bushes. They zig zag around almost memorizing every stick, rock, and curve of the forest. They are amazing! 


It really is a joy to watch each child come into their own and become good friends. They have been working so hard to take care of each other and really focus on being kind & supportive.

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...
