Good Afternoon!
We made playdough this morning and talked about what we would do with it. Some of the kids had a discussion while the playdough was being made. It was decided that several friends wanted to “make birthday cakes”. We added some extra items like beads and colored popsicle sticks in order to enhance the play. Kids made all sorts of creative and interesting cakes. They found innovative ways to use the new materials. Some used the sticks for birthday candles while others found they could be used as structural support to hold multiple layers of “cake”. This creative problem solving lead to all sorts of interesting cake shapes!
After so much indoor time, everyone needed to move their bodies and exercise those big gross motor muscles! Several friends wanted to make an obstacle course, so we put together a “balancing tape” challenge. Kids tried to follow the tape in lines and zigzags, then jump to X’s on the floor. We added some foam stepping stones for an extra level of difficulty!
Breakfast: Chex cereal with fresh pineapple/bananas
Lunch: Peanut butter on whole wheat bread with fresh honeydew melon/black grapes/apples and fresh green peppers/carrots
PM Snack: Whole wheat bagels with cream cheese
Wee Sprouts: Fresh green beans/carrots
Have a wonderful afternoon!
