Week 9 is here!

 Hello and happy Monday! We are starting off this week with a chilly Fall day! Inside we are toasty while celebrating all things Fall. We are continuing and extending some of our invitations for centers with sensory, fall items and a fun art project. We still have our fall items (pine cones, leaves, and acorns) in the sensory table to explore but we challenged friends to pick an item and carry it across the balance beam, match the item, and then crawl through the tunnel back to the table. Another invitation is to create a Fall scene with magnets, have a leaf party on the carpet, explore lacing and other fun light/shadow activities. Our third invitation is at the table where we explored colors with paint. We mixed 2 colors to make 1 new one; challenge your kiddo to name the colors (blue + yellow = green). 

Tomorrow is forest day and we will go and visit but it is sure to be chilly, especially in the shade of the trees. Please dress your child appropriately so that they are comfortable. If you want to keep little fingers warm, mittens are more kid friendly for independence purposes of putting on (as well as for teachers' sanity 😂).

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...
