Birds of a Feather

Wow, anyone else tired?! I truly hope everyone gets some good rest in over the weekend because these kids played hard this week! And with the upcoming warmer weather we will only continue to play outside and get in some good exercise. 

Before we began our hard play outside today, the kids took some time to slow down and focus on some painting. We weren't going to use regular paint brushes though, that simply would not do. The other day L mentioned that it would be cool to use feathers to paint and we thought that was a great idea. We loaded up the paint trays, found lots of different feathers and got to work. 

It turned out to be quite an experience as the paint didn't spread very well with the delicate feathers. Maybe it was too thick? Maybe we needed different feathers? Either way, the kids enjoyed using a different utensil to paint with and liked the fact that if we let the feathers dry out with paint they might "transform into a new color!" 

It's always fun to try a new ways of painting. It truly brings out a very creative side to our kids. Have a great weekend!

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!
