WF Daily Explorations Wednesday June 22

MG 0172

This morning Melinda led a 1 1/2 hour Sticky Things Exploration! Part One was giving each friend a long piece of contact paper. Exercising their fine motor muscles, friends peeled the paper off the sticky part. Then they experimented with how different materials stuck to the surface. MG 0180 MG 0178 Questions such as “What will happen if we fold our creation over?”, “What happens if we hang it up?” were raised. They discussed the concept of smooth/rough. For Part Two, Melinda put a variety of different types of sticky tape on the table. Friends created 2d and 3d art.

Our Wee-est Wee Friends are not so wee anymore! This morning a group of friends were problem-solving how to get the wagon trike to go. They discovered that if one friend pedaled and another pushed TWO friends could ride!

For lunch, we served whole wheat pasta elbows baked with turkey and mozzarella cheese, applesauce and broccoli.

Don’t forget to bring your child’s swimsuit. Weather permitting, we will water play while outside!

Have a great day!
