Sculpture Park!!

 What a gorgeous day to spend outside! We couldn't miss the opportunity to visit one of our favorite spots in the neighborhood this afternoon. Not only did everyone get a good dose of vitamin D, we also got to expand on some of our conversations regarding birds. 

The kids remembered that the sculpture park has a giant mosaic bird that is by far their favorite thing to climb on and that gave us another idea... what if we tried to find birds while we were there? Before we left you will notice L in the beginning of the video talking about different homes animals live in- way to connect some dots, L! 

We packed up the backpack with some trusty binoculars and got to work! Once we arrived the kids were anxious to peer into the bright blue sky and look for some birds. Unfortunately, we did a lot of listening before we saw one... one little bird that was creeping along the dirt. 

"He's digging!"
"I think he's hungry!"
"Maybe he found a worm."

"Birds like to dig!"

"Why is he on the ground? Birds fly!"



It was a great day full of joy!

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...
