  • Dino-mite Dino Playdate

    In our fifth 2-3 year old summer playdate series, Dinosaur Playdate, we had so much fun spending the week imagining a time when dinosaurs still roamed the Earth. We got to dance around to one of our favorite tunes, “We Are the Dinosaurs”, with Ms. Joanie, on Music Monday. We also used dinosaur mats for our friends to practice using tweezers to place the pom pom on the coordinating color–excellent fine motor for our younger ones to practice their hand strength!

    We also had different group time games, one of which was sorting different size dinosaurs into their correct bowl. The other game we played was a dinosaur shape matching game, which our friends loved, too!

    For some science fun, we used warm water in squirt bottles to melt dinosaurs out of their frozen ice eggs! The ice and water cooled us down on a hot summer morning, and they so enjoyed when they freed the dinosaurs!

    On our party day, they got to decorate their own cupcakes with different types of candies and sprinkles, then they dug right in!

  • Get Up & Move Play Date

    Last week we had our Get Up & Move Play Date and we had so much fun!  We did Obstacle Courses, had some fun with Water Day Wednesday, played some tossing games, had a bounce house, and did a lot of dancing!  We ended our week with a fun party and had a special cupcake for snack!  It was such a great week!

  • Curtsying to Say, “Hello!”; Walking the Plank, “Look out below!”

    We had such a great time during our Pirates and Princesses playdate series. We had discovery bins for our pirates to explore the black pirate beaches, complete with pirate ships and buried treasure! For our princesses, we had the Queen’s jewels and Cinderella’s glass slipper!

    Walk the plank, get a stamp! Our pirates did a great job trying not to fall off of the “plank” and into the “water” with all of our sea creatures! 🙂

    We had a Frozen ice experiment using glittery ice cubes with secret jewels inside. Put the “magic potion” on the cubes and watch them fizz and magically melt away!
