We celebrated the first day of spring by reading Thumbelina. Then we created flower petals.

We are still interested in bears. So we re-read We’re Going On a Bear Hunt and invited Bernie the Bear to come and answer some bear questions. His first answer was “Umm, no, I’m not an octopus.” Then we went on our own bear hunt.

A large group of friends worked at climbing UP the pole. “Why is it easier to climb up the pole without socks than with socks?”. As friends got to the top, they counted how many seconds they were able to hang there. One friend counted to 100.

Happy Spring! Hope you can get out of your cave a bit today! – Laurie
