Hello Week #7!

 Hi Pine Families! We are kicking off week 7 together and really in the groove. We will continue to practice our words of the week I WANT. Our invitations at center time have changed and we were super excited to check them out. In our first space we offered more cutting as some friends really enjoyed using scissors. We are starting a color study and at our art table all of our items were _____ (ask your kiddo if they remember the color; red). We also offered a game, Strawberries in a Basket, to help us practice skills like waiting, taking turns, number recognition and counting. In our second space, we opened a grocery store. Friends could pick a grocery list, grab a grocery cart and get to work collecting their items. Some friends enjoyed playing the cashier and checking friends out when they finished their list. Our small world continues to be open and some new items have been added, pumpkins and spider web! Our third area offered time to explore water in the sensory table by using things that squirt; this helps our hands get strong! 

It is sure to be a fun week together but as a heads up, Ms. Carrie will be out Thursday (as well as the following Monday and Tuesday) so there will not be a blog. Thanks for your understanding :)

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...
