The children experienced something new this morning in our morning circle. We now have some name cards for each child with their picture. This not only helps the individual child begin to recognize their own name, but it is a great to watch the other children name all of their fellow WWF’s! The children were invited to wear our new monkey tail during our story time today. It seemed as though Miss Paulina was really in the mood to monkey around, she loved wearing it!

 

Dipping monkeys into various colored paints to place on paper was available in the kitchen. For some, this evolved into finger painting, which was just fine!

Curious George arrived right about the same time Elizabeth did, which was perfect timing, since she is a George fan! Olivia sat down to join in, and said, “Match!” All of the children are really using their vocabulary to articulate their colors.

Marta, Sloane, Elizabeth and Jada tended to their baby dolls. They were swaddled and wrapped in blankets and given lots of TLC. Some had bottles, others went on walks, and some received a home cooked meal right from our play kitchen.

For morning snack, the children peeled their own bananas, and enjoyed them. Our lunch today was whole wheat noodles with beef, French style green beans and apples.

 

May your day be filled with warmth of the holiday season!
