Welcome to Tuesday!

The sensory bin was a big hit again! It was full of flowers and all things gardening. Our friends enjoyed loading up their planters with flowers and taking the flower pot to water their bouquets. Daniel and Crosby made poisonous bundles of flowers. This led to an interesting discussion on Venus Fly Traps. We discussed how they are known to not only eat bugs, but some species are known to eat rodents as well.

At the art center today we created “Rainstorm Paintings”.  We used an eye dropper to mix different shades of blue in our jars.  Then we created a rain storm on our paper.  We used the eye dropper to make large and small raindrops.  We noted the way the paint splashed like raindrops in a puddle.  Next we used a straw to make wind and we blew the paint around the paper.  We noticed that we could use out wind to change the directing that the paint was flowing like wind does on the surface of a puddle, pond or lake.  Some of us thought about picking the paper up from different sides and watching the paint drip in different directs.  We talked about how gravity is pulling the paint down toward the ground not matter which way we turn it.
