Happy 4th Birthday Hannah!

Today we had somewhat of a space themed day due to some of our friend’s interest in space.  One of our friends had made the planet Saturn out of her playdough last week which got us talking about space.  We brought in some books on space which further grew the interest as a couple other friends were drawn into the beauty of galaxies and nebulas.  Today we expanded on that with a constellation painting activity, books on stars and outer space plus a space floor  puzzle.  We made our paintings after leafing through some books with pictures of constellations.  We used a Q tip, dark paper and sparkly white paint to create our own constellations that we might want to see in the sky.  At small group we also read the story “Mae Among the Stars”.  It tells the true story of Dr. Mae Jemison who grew up to become the first African American female astronaut. 

A friend wanted to explore the shaving cream. When he was done, the other friends wanted a turn as well. We put in toy animals, bugs, and kitchen utensils for added fun.

The sun was an open invitation for a long walk around the neighborhood. We saw a robin, delivery trucks, and the railroad tracks. Our friends were very tired when we were through.
