Good Afternoon!
When we headed outside this morning, P.K. and Clara headed straight to the sand box. They used shovels to scoop the sand and pour it into a container or pail. P.K. made sure to slowly pour the sand into the bowl so that it wouldn’t spill.
Friends headed to the house where they looked at an ant that was living there! Marina helped her friends by pointing to where the ant was. Clara stuck her head out and smiled.
There were many boxes in the wooden house. P.K went into the house to investigate. He looked at the multiple boxes and found that some of them had tap on them. He tried with all of his might to pull the tap off!
The water table was open and our friends scurried over. Marina dipped the watering can all the way into the water so it would become full of water. She poured the water back into the water table or onto the ground where it splashed her feet! Clara used a pot that had holes at the bottom so when she lifted the pot full of water, water came pouring out of the bottom.
Children used different tools while playing in the water table.
Clara opened her mouth WIDE to get the water in there. Marina poured the water from her watering can and it hit the ground. P.K. pointed and said, “Cold.”
Our friends smiled as they sat on the swing over looking the playground where friends were getting wet and experiencing water balloons!
Children got to experience water balloons: what they felt like and what they do when they break on the ground! We soon found out that it was hard to hold the water balloon because it was very slippery.
Even when we dropped the balloon on the ground, it didn’t always pop! But when it did, children found out that all of the water comes out and splashes us.
P.K. had a blast in a mud puddle! He splashed his hands and explored the dirt and mud. He decided to run a stick through the puddle and make lines. He sure did get dirty! After he was done exploring, we washed him off with a hose. He liked the cold water shooting out onto his legs.
Zoey continues to grow at Wee Wee Friends. She’s becoming aware of her surroundings and the different noises that occur throughout the day. She was so tired after playing with the baby jungle gym that she decided to take a little cat nap. Of course we were right there watching her as she experienced taking a nap on her belly.
For breakfast, children had toast with cinnamon and bananas. Lunch consisted of egg casserole with hash browns, mixed fruit (cantaloupe and watermelon), applesauce, and cucumbers. PM snack was fresh oranges and animal crackers.
Have a great evening!
