The Many Creations of Wee Friends

                        

Today friends spent lots of time creating. Using ALL of the blocks, bins and baskets they could find, friends built a massive house/fort.  They even did a great job of cleaning up afterwards.

                                                            

Elliott wanted to make a paper boat like his dad does at home. Although he couldn’t remember how his dad folded the paper, we looked up origami boat directions online and created this!

                                          

Sophie hard at work on her drawing.

                                           

Elizabeth created her very own calendar from an old check book. She diligently wrote each of the months on a separate page. This work naturally generated a conversation about the 12 months and how they make up a year. Elizabeth was surprised to learn she has lived through five Januarys!

Following friends interests leads to exciting opportunities for learning. It is such a joy to see where their growing minds take creative projects. We are very thankful for our Wee Frienders and their families this Thanksgiving!

Hope you have a wonderful holiday.
