Several of the children played grocery store this morning by filling their baskets, picking out food items, and taking their train ride home.  Many were busy feeding their babies bottles, sitting them at the table, or swaddling and rocking with them.  It is so great to seem them pretending.   Many are still into our birthday theme, and love our pretend cake with candles.

Sunshine is here! We had noticed how the trees and tulips were blooming throughout this week and were eagerly awaiting for a sunny day to take a walk and observe the changing landscape. So wagons in hand, and Sloane in Miss Paulina´s back, off we went! We saw and conversed about colors, tulips, trees (especially Magnolia trees!), hyacinths, and dandelions.

Back at WWF’s children spent time playing at the playground. Outside children have been experimenting with a funnel in the rock area around the log cabin. Thanks to Amy’s idea. we have recycled some milk jugs, cutting them in half and making funnels. These have turned out to be interesting tools to be used in all sorts of ways.

Today the menu included whole-wheat pizza, lima beans, pineapple and apple.  The children have done an exceptional job with serving themselves this week with a little assistance from the teachers. This afternoon they will be using an apple peeler to prepare our snack.

Wishing you and your family a weekend full of sunshine.

Paulina, Lisa and Marty
