We started our morning with some guitar and beautiful songs. From there, Miss Paulina brought out her recorder. All of the children sat so nicely and listened,while others shaked their maracas. Marta used her imagination and stacked some pegs to make a recorder of her own. What a brilliant idea! She then continued to play her pegs like a recorder as well! Sloane and Chloe joined in by playing the xylophone.

 

Elizabeth enjoyed being a mom once again in our dramatic play area, diapering her baby doll and getting her prepared for the day. Ozzie enjoyed some time playing with trucks, while Ellie and Jada joined in on the peg play, stacking them, counting them, and discussing with them the concepts of taller and shorter, and learning our colors as well.

 

Sloane, Elizabeth, Olivia and Marta enjoyed some dump and fill while scooping up the pebbles in our log cabin house outside. Ozzie enjoyed riding his Blue Dog down the hill, and has mastered the concept of go and stop as well.

Chloe and Sloane spent some time coming down the slides at the same time. Sloane is counting aloud with “One, two, three, go” prior to heading to the bottom.

Everyone joined in for some painting fun on our outside art easel. The children painted some beautiful pictures, then we taped fall leaves on them to add to their creations.

 

PeeKay and Clara also enjoyed the beauty of the fall day, observing not only the beautiful colors of the trees, but watching their friends, as well.

For breakfast this morning we had scrambled eggs with cheese, whole wheat toast, and bananas. Our mid-morning outside snack was rice cakes. Sloane and Olivia sat themselves on the our little bench, enjoyed their snack, and soon, the whole group joined in. Our lunch was ham sandwiches on whole wheat buns, corn, and raisins. We sure had some hearty eaters today.

May the beauty and splendor of this fall day fill your heart with sunshine!
