Hello!

Our friends started their day off by learning about beets. Children tore off the leaves of the beats and then pulled the stalks out of the bulb. A few of our friends helped to break the stalks so that they could be boiled in a pot of water. Tomorrow we will continue our beet investigation by dying eggs with the coloring from the beets!

While the stalks were boiling on the stove, our friends used the leaves of the beets to paint! Children used purple paint along with the leaves to make different strokes and lines on their paper.

After beet painting, we headed outside where children chose to ride bikes and play in the sandbox. We also brought out our grass to see if it was growing at all. Since it was such a sunny day out, we thought the grass could use some glorious sunshine :).

For breakfast our friends enjoyed eggs and apples. Lunch consisted of whole wheat pita bread sandwiches with hummus, cucumbers, and bananas. PM snack was crackers, string cheese, and apples.

Hope everyone has a wonderful evening!
