*A reminder that we are closed Friday, March 29th and will re-open Monday, April 1st.
We began our day with a game of Wee Friends Twister. Several friends gathered to move hands and feet on certain colors and textures. Then we each took a turn being the Game Master, learning to lead by choosing and expressing directions for our friends to follow.
And then we began a Crazy Science Experiment Morning, lasting almost an hour and 1/2!
It began with the Question “Which elements go together?”
1. Salt and Ice
Melinda: “is your melting? What else would melt the ice?”
Kids: “Water!”, “Really hot water!”, “Look how small mine is!”
2. Watercolor and water – “It DOES mix together!”, “It’s blue, just like my shirt!”
3. Oil and water – “It’s making one big bubble!”, “It’s like a whirlpool!”, “It doesn’t mix!”
4. Sprite and raisins – “Will it explode?, “Put some more pop in it!”
5. Sugar and hot water – “It’s good!”, “It’s yucky to me.”
6. Free Choice – Friends chose to mix vinegar, an egg, baking soda and food coloring together!
Whew. That was a lot of experimenting. We decided to stretch our muscles with a good ‘ole game of tug of war. One of us hopped.
We were still wiggly, so we jammed out to “Shake!” by Hap Palmer.
Carrots and broccoli were the Wee Sprouts, and Corn Flakes and bananas were breakfast, but a serving of peanut butter, peas and pears/pineapple was our lunch. We will snack on string cheese and crackers.
“Try, try, try to separate them, it’s an illusion.
Try, try, try and you only come to this conclusion:
Love and marriage, love and marriage,
Go together like a horse and carriage.
This I tell ya, brother, you can’t have one without the other.”
