A BIG welcome back from vacation! Hope everyone enjoyed their time home or on a vacation.

We were all smiles today as friends came in the door. Well ok..maybe not all smiles. It’s hard to leave Mommy and Daddy after spending a whole week with them! We sure do love our parents! As with anything in life, we had to get back into the swing of things.

Friends headed outside this morning. Saskia enjoyed playing in the house while Naia covered her legs with sand.

While our older friends napped, Lucy, Tate, and Maya had playtime in the gross motor area. We loved putting the rings on our head and then taking them off. Tate manipulated the colored blocks, flipping them over on their side to see what else he could do with the block.

With the torrential downpour this afternoon, we stayed inside and got out a few sensory activities. Naia and Saskia worked with birdseed. They both enjoyed getting birdseed into a cup and then pouring it into a bowl. The movement of the birdseed made for nice background noise with the rain!

For breakfast, children had toast with soy butter and banana. Lunch consisted of whole grain noodles with kidney beans, cantaloupe, and peas. PM snack was animal crackers and cheddar block cheese.

Have a lovely night!
