Chalk Drawings

 No matter where we are or what we are doing, these kids always seem to gravitate towards drawing! It was no different today out on the playscape. Many of the kids started requesting to draw with paper and markers, but it was too windy! The paper may blow away... so the next best thing was some sidewalk chalk. 

L & O made their way over to the sidewalk, picked out their favorite colors, and started drawing. L, however, started doing something different. She started tracing her hand! This gave us an idea. What if we traced our whole bodies? 




Within minutes several kids ran over to try their best to try and trace one another. 

"I look like a gingerbread!"

"They are so funny!"
"F & O are holding hands! That's so funny!"

The kids worked hard as they started coloring in different parts of their bodies, adding in all kinds of facial features, and of course adding their favorite parts of the outfit. 

"Look, I added a hat to F's body!"

"He needs shoes!"
"I need to make feet too!"

Although it was hot, we enjoyed our time outside on the playscape.

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!
