Happy Monday! Today we had a few “new” things! First, our new friend Elliott started Wee Friends. He is very sweet and seemed to enjoy all of his new experiences!
Second, we now have a new holes that I made in the walls this weekend. The new opening allows us to have better visibility over the front rooms. A few more coats of paint and we’ll be all set!
This morning was a blue bus morning. The kids spent a lot of time working on balance skills on the balance beam. The reported h
ighlight of this was working on scales (arms out while balancing on one leg) and hopping like a bunny.
Inside, we had lots of story times and the art room was full of eager artists! They drew pictures with markers, used tempera paint at the easel, and everyone was excited to further explore using more corn syrup paint. Miss Melinda discovered this was the favorite paint choice last week in our paint experiments. Today the kids had several colors and created shiny (and sticky!) pictures. Literally, they are good enough to eat.
Also, popular (and new) were the silky capes that reinforces why Tami likes Halloween so much…the clearance sale of costumes after the holiday!
Outside, we enjoyed mild temperatures and the kids spent time riding bicycles, climbing on the climber and in the sandbox. The slide was extremely popular with large groups of children negotiating who would go together holding hands down the slide.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR DONATIONS OF…lots of old, smaller sized girl underwear and size 2 & 3 easy to pull up and down pants. We have a gaggle of potty training girls at WeeWee and find ourselves short of “extras”. We like all those ugly & stained items that you wouldn’t want to pass down to anyone else!
For lunch we served whole wheat pasta with marinara, lima beans/corn, and fresh apple slices.
Enjoy your day!
