Hello Families! It was a gray rainy day outside and a busy day inside at Wee Friends.
We made some seasonal black and orange play dough to explore in the art center this morning! Everyone has been talking a lot about Halloween, so it seems to be a strong interest in the classroom right now. Our orange playdough was scented with pumpkin pie spice and we were able to make pretend pumpkin pies in little pie trays, then use a butter knife to cut the pie into pieces. We got a chance to talk about cutting a pie in half and in quarters. The black playdough was sprinkled with silver glitter like a night sky. Everyone enjoyed using cookie cutters to cut out stars and nocturnal animals like owls and bats.
We continued the seasonal theme in the sensory bin as well. We enjoyed creating concoctions with our orange tinted water, bottles, eyedroppers, tongs and spiders.
