Good afternoon!
To welcome our friend Hannah back, we all dressed up and danced to her favorite song: “Let It Go.”
We then engaged in different activities. Emily and Hannah gathered at the reading steps to listen to Miss Bekah read some books. Eliza sat on a wooden block and scooted all over the carpet with it. Paige put on her construction hat and used a hammer to work on the Habi-trail area. Eleanor played the piano while doing tummy time!
We made our way outside a little early to beat the heat! Arthur enjoyed pushing the wheelbarrow all over the backyard. Emily played with baby dolls with her sister Maggie. Eliza sat down in the play house to play with the little kitchenette. Hannah explored her artistic skills with markers at the art center. Ben and Dax both rested in the shade to cool off and to share smiles.

Happy Monday!
William was determined to build the tallest marble run this morning! He built it so high that he ran into a problem…how to get the marble in. He tried bending the run in order to put the marble inside but that idea proved unsuccessful. He finally chose to remove just enough of the tube so the marble run was still functional but at maximum height. It was a great lesson in the constrains of engineering projects and how to balance form and function!
Friends in the art center created abstract art work using colored paper, glue, sequins and foam shapes, numbers and letters. Some chose the mixed media rout using crayons and markers first, then adding the glued pieces on top. As usual there was a great conversation about the art work being made at the table and sharing of ideas!
Outside We got some exercise on the balance bikes and tricycles!
We got creative at the outdoor art center too! Imogen had the interesting idea of designing a house just for rolly- polly bugs on paper and then putting real rolly-polly bugs that she had found into the house. This is the kind of project that can only be done in an outdoor art center
Breakfast: whole wheat bagels with fresh clementine
Lunch: Home made Macaroni and Cheese with whole wheat pasta, fresh snap peas from our garden, green peppers and pears

Happy Monday!
We began our morning engaged in a variety of activities. Arthur and Eliza played music instruments making beautiful sounds, Eleanor, Emily and Paige looked at books, Ben climbed up on a wooden block to sit at the ballet bar and look in the mirrors and Dax dressed up by adding a tie and cape to his outfit.
Today is Miss Bekah’s birthday so we brought up the birthday cake stacker. We all helped each other stack the cake and then tumble it after it was complete. Even Eleanor joined in!
We then headed into the kitchen to engage with playdough. We were busy flattening and cutting it with a variety of rolling and cutting tools. We also added golf tees to use as candles to make birthday cakes for Miss Bekah and sing to her.
We then headed outside to enjoy the weather. Eleanor sat in the bouncer to play with the toys on it, Arthur, Emily, Eliza and Paige enjoyed painting with a paint brush with the watercolors or exploring them with our fingers and Dax engaged in riding bikes down the hill.

Good Afternoon!
Everyone has been feasting on yellow snow peas from the garden! The pea plants started producing this week and have been giving us copious amounts of sweet little yellow pea pods which Wee Friends just can’t get enough of! As we were all eating peas in the garden Bo noticed a strange object in the garden bed. We found that it was the shell of a bean that had sluffed off of the new bean leaves as they emerged. Everyone was interested in looking at the new growing bean plants and searching for more shells after that. What a delicious and nutritious garden learning day!
Katherine was very into her imaginative birthday this morning. She carefully sliced pieces and put them onto plates for her friends and teachers. She showed us all how we could best “pretend” to eat the cake. She said she was pretending all the teachers were turning three, but that was because it was “just pretend”.
Breakfast– Whole grain cheerios with fresh strawberries.
Lunch– Farm fresh scrambled eggs with whole wheat bread, fresh strawberries/banana, and fresh cucumber/pepper.
PM snack– Air popped popcorn with butter and raisins.
Wee Sprout– Fresh pepper/cucumber.
Have a lovely night.
