Good Afternoon!
After friends got done with their breakfast, they had the opportunity to head to the round table where it was button city! Children could either sort the buttons by color or by shape or any way they would like!
A group of friends took the buttons and worked together to sort them by shape. They put all of the squares on the ‘square’ paper, all of the triangles on the ‘triangle’ paper, etc.
We started a project this morning using salt dough! First, of course, we had to make the salt dough. After gathering all of the ingredients, friends huddled around the table where they were apart of the salt dough making process.
We took red salt dough and white salt dough and mixed it together. The word ‘marble’ was introduced!
Miss Mindy had half of a grapefruit left over from breakfast so we decided to have a taste test, after several questions like, “What is that?! Is it an orange?” were asked.
Considering that grapefruit can be rather tart, the results were quite interesting. Every child (all six of them) that tried it, loved it! Everyone asked for seconds. We have a group of friends who will try almost anything!
We ended our morning with play dough after it was requested from a friend. Our friends who needed a little sensory input through their hands took turns at the table using not only the play dough but different accessories to explore the dough.
Wee Sprouts– Snap peas.
Breakfast– Kix and mangos.
Lunch– Black bean and shredded cheese tortillas, cauliflower, and oranges.
PM Snack– Cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese.
Have a great evening!
