Our morning began with some marker and paint mural drawings. The children worked diligently on their own masterpieces, some discussing their drawings as they went along.

Fall scented homemade Pla-Doh of cinnamon filled the kitchen table. The children enjoyed doing “Pat-A-Cake, Pat-A-Cake a Bakers Man” with it. We also brought out our big buttons to add to their creations. We worked with some of the children on counting and matching in the midst of their creations. Ozzie enjoyed matching his buttons on the table. Olivia and Sloane enjoyed the texture of theirs, and flattening it out on the table. Eleanor Jada and Marta worked on theirs individually, taking much pride in their creations. We also listened to several of our fall book selections.

Our outside time this morning was spent with our new parachute. What fun this was! This taught the children the concept of high and low, slower and faster, and mastering to keep the ball we placed in the center on the parachute! We had some disappointed faces when we were done, so it will most likely be part of our afternoon activities!

For breakfast this morning, we had scrambled eggs with cheese and bananas. Our mid-morning, post parachute snack was fresh sliced cucumbers. Rice with chicken, more cucumbers, and oranges filled the children’s bellies this afternoon. As you can see below, it was a big hit!

Please be on stand-by for a farm update for our farm trip from Tami either tonight, or tomorrow. Once again, the weather forecast is not in our favor.

Enjoy the scenery of this beautiful day!
