Good Afternoon!

I had turned the music on this morning for children’s arrival and shortly after breakfast, a friend came up and asked if we could do musical instruments. This peaked the interest of several friends so a large group converged on the music rug. We listened to music and worked on rhythm and beat while using a variety of instruments.

Once we put the musical instruments away, a few friends decided to explore a quieter activity: puzzles! Children challenged themselves by doing puzzles that they hadn’t done before or that were challenging in the past.

As we headed outside, we were hit smack in the face with temps in the 70’s and abundant sunshine! For early August, we’ll take it!

James found two cicada exoskeletons and decided to put them into his bug jar. He went around asking his friends if they wanted to see.

Breakfast– Whole grain oatmeal with cinnamon and fresh strawberries.

Lunch– Farm fresh scrambled eggs with whole wheat tortilla, fresh apples/banana, and fresh cucumber/cherry tomatoes from the garden.

PM snack– Blue corn chips with hummus.

Wee Sprout– Fresh cucumber/pepper.

Have a great night!
