Kenwood Country Club
March 13, 2011
I think I just witnessed the future leaders of Cincinnati… if not America. On behalf of the Help Me Grow program provided by Lighthouse Youth Services, Creative Tots hosted a fashion show at Kenwood Country Club with some of the cutest kids in the Tri-State.
Hey Tyra, no need to search out winners on America’s Next Top Model, they’ve been spied right here.
Of course some of the kids were a little shy on the runway but that only served to boost the OMG/AHH factor while others had a natural swag that they brought to the show. Along with the spirited youths, audience members were delighted by the fashion—special thanks to Castle House and The Wardrobe. Proud to say I’ve bought dresses from both stores!
Today we used the outdoors as our learning environment!
After we discussed our bones and “X” is for x-ray, the children’s eyes were wide open as we looked at the bones of a snake and a frog on an x-ray!
To reinforce the letter “X” in the toddlers today, we painted an “X” with a sponge cut into an “X”!
Toddlers begin with parallel play (Parallel play is characterized by children playing the same game next to each other but with very little interaction). As they turn 2 1/2 to 3 they begin playing with the same thing next to each other and talking, but not yet working together to create something. This is called associative play. It is so exciting to see this beginning in our class
