Tasty Tuesday!

 Today we celebrated with Tasty Tuesday! In order to set ourselves up for success for tasty treats today, the kids helped make popsicles yesterday to freeze overnight and then enjoy today. Our journey to make these popsicles started at our afternoon meeting. The kids were posed with the question: What color popsicles should we make? To make things a bit easier, they had a choice between pink or red. 

"Oh I want red!"
"Yeah red popsicles!"
"No, no pink!" 

Well this was going to be an issue, how would we determine which color to make? A vote!

We greeted each child as normal, but after their name was called they had to write their name under their color choice. 



There was one issue... 4 kids and there were two for pink and two for red.
"It's a tie!" L exclaimed. 
Now what? Ms. Margie was chosen to make the decision. Everyone waited in anticipation as she approached the board. Margie chose red! 
The class cheered! Either way we were getting to eat popsicles 😊

After snack it was time to start making popsicles. Some of the kids were worried that their parents wouldn't know how to make popsicles at home, but I reassured them that my secret recipe would be shared with all of you. 
The secret recipe? Kool-aid! 






Finally, regular snack ended and it was time to enjoy the popsicles! 

PURE BLISS!

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.

Tree Swing

The Pine kids were SO excited to get back to the forest today. Because S spends the beginning of her day in another classroom, she was already familiar with a coveted branch that hung low enough for the kids to try and swing on.  "There's a tree swing at the forest, we should all do it!" S, who seemed to display a high level of confidence, took a hold of the branch as R handed it to her. She took a deep breath and jumped off the log.  S swung with grace over the ground.  The others watched in awe and quickly lined up to take turns.  Each friend took a different approach and not always quite sure on how to get the same kind of lift and swing S did. W seemed unsure on the whole activity, but was willing to try. He couldn't quite get the desired swinging motion and lost interest after his first try.  L saw how the others were swinging and although a little scared, decided to try several times in a row be...

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!
