Max was eager to begin our Donut Shop Game this morning. He displayed all of our colored felt “donuts” in our circle. Olivia and Jada were right at his side. We also read, “Hand, Hand, Fingers, Thumb” that Olivia picked out for us. The children then lined up to do our name recognition cards. Olivia surprised us today by saying everyones name as the cards were shown. We listened to our “Walking Through the Jungle” book and CD. The children love the crocodile, and are right on cue with saying “SNAP!”

Easel and sponge painting were available in the kitchen for those who wished to display their artistic talents. Jada and Olivia opted to finger paint, while Ozzie and Sloane opted for a paint brush, then Sloane decided it would be best to try them all.

Ozzie, Jada and Olivia used our wooden beads on our peg poles. They observed each other placing one bead at a time on the wooden peg, and learning that ten pegs could fit on one peg. Their favorite part was knocking the beads off the peg once they reached to ten.

Mickey Mouse and Frosty were music favorites today. Chloe carries our Frosty book around throughout most of the day, and now sits by herself and reads it aloud.

For breakfast this morning we had Cheerios and fruit. Our outside mid morning snack was cheese. For lunch we had rice and chicken, sweet potatoes and raisins with apples.

Jada and Ozzie enjoyed our Blue Dogs outside this morning, as the rest of the children seemed to really enjoy the slides.

Please know that we do have a stomach virus running through WWF. Wishing Ellie and PeeKay a speedy recovery.

We apologize for no pictures today, as we are having some technical difficulties.

May your weekend be filled with joy of the holiday season!
