Keeping Busy

We've been keeping busy this week with activities involved around our fingers and hands. December is Our Bodies month so we'll have fun discovering all the different parts of our own bodies. This is one of my favorite months because we get to do so much discovery and sensory play.

There's lots of colds going around and one case of pink eye, so it seems a snow day is just what the doctor ordered. We're looking forward to getting back into the swing of things tomorrow.

We have a new family visiting on Friday. We're looking forward to having them here. We'll keep you posted on the outcome.

Hope everyone is staying safe and warm.

Blankets and Pillows

Ahhh, what a warm and cozy week we had. Ya gotta love blankets and pillows as a theme! We did lots of snuggling and reading books, we played with the tunnel with a blanket over it, we had coloring picnics and puzzle picnics, we played in shaving cream, painted a class quilt and played with cotton balls in the sensory table. We rounded out the week with a pajama party (okay, well, ASHLEY remembered to come in her jams!! LOL) But one of the best things of the week was the continued warm weather.

We're looking forward to next week and our Thanksgiving lunch on Wednesday. We'll be sure to take and post some pictures! Have a great weekend!

Playing in the Leaves!

Terrible Blogger

Oh I've been a terrible blogger! I'll try to get some pictures posted soon. In the meantime we've been enjoying our new theme Around the House. This week was "Pets". We've had fun talking about and pretending to be different pets. We made fish bowls and also made animal shapes in playdough with cookie cutters. But I have to save, the favorite thing this week was definitely playing in the leaves! We raked a HUGE pile and had fun running through, jumping in and kicking, and throwing over our heads. We also put some at the bottom of the slides and slid through them. Oh what fun!

Fall Festival - Farm Week

We've been busy this week! Lots to do. You just can't fail when it comes to Farm Week! The kids are enjoying playing with the various farm animals, checking out the buckwheat hulls in the sensory table, singing songs, movement activities and of course, playing outside! We got to watch the neighbors trees get taken down today. The men were way up high in the trees like monkeys. It was cool! It may be a short week, but it's a busy one! :)
