Happy Friday!

Pretend play is such a big part of our day. Kitchen play. Housekeeping. Dress up. Through it all, social skills are learned through play. While the concept of ‘sharing’ is hard to grasp at this age, we try to talk about the issues we’re having during play. For example, two children wanting the same doll. We give options such as going to get another doll or waiting for their friend to be done with that certain doll. It’s all about options and choices .

We’re so affectionate with our baby dolls!

All week, we have been enjoying watching the leaves fall from the tree in the backyard. Friends have been collecting leaves and having conversations about the color of the leaves as well as the smaller/larger aspect.

For quite a while this morning, we worked on filling up cups and buckets using our shovels. While we were focusing on the sandbox, we also observed the older wee friends starting a ‘hole’ exploration. They’re into digging BIG holes .

It’s sibling love. With a little tackling thrown in!

For breakfast, children had kix and banana. Lunch consisted of scrambled fresh farm eggs, mixed vegetables, and cantaloupe. PM snack was whole wheat bunny crackers along with string cheese.

Hope everyone has a terrific weekend!
