more sneak preview art show work
This afternoon the children used sponges to paint circles. We used all different colors to make our beautiful circles! These circles will be used for a special project for the art show! They also had fun painting all over their pumpkins!
sensory bugs
This week the sensory table is full of dirt and creepy crawly bugs! Most of the kids couldn’t wait to get their hands on the snakes and spiders but a few didn’t mind standing back and watching! The kids have been using their imagination and making the bugs crawl up their arms and slither all around!
Please join us for our First Annual Harvest Festival on Friday, October 30th. There will be a petting zoo, pumpkin decorating, apple prints, and of course, food! You won’t want to miss it! This Friday from 5:30 to 7:00. Bring the whole family!
Today there was a lot of team work going on as the kids decided to build a big castle! They worked hard to make each block balance on top of the next one! The best part was knocking down all of the blocks at the end!
letter sorting
The kids were so intrigued today when we did our coloring sorting activity. We had a bunch of different color bears and six different color bowls. Our job was to work together to put the bears in the right color bowl. Each child had a turn to take a bear and find the right home for him. They did a wonderful job sorting the bears! They couldn’t wait until it was their turn to take a bear! We had many friends help each other to make sure the bears were put into the right bowls.
The toddler class had so much fun this morning creating their Pumpkin Pie with the letter “P” on it! Edie loved sprinkling cinnamon all over her pumpkin pie and as you can see Owen took a really good sniff of his cinnamon!
play-dough sculptures
The kids had a wonderful time with play dough this morning! They were using their creative minds to turn their play dough into many different things. Morgan turned his play dough into a pair of glasses and Audrey made hers into a hat!
Today we talked about how important it is to brush our teeth! For our art project today, the kids decorated their very own tooth brush! As you can see here, they are having fun using the dot paints to make their tooth brushes colorful!

treasure hunting at the sensory table
This week we have added rice and colorful jewels to our sensory table! The kids have loved feeling the texture of the rice and sorting through it to find the shiny and colorful jewels! We had quite a crowd at the sensory table today scooping and dumping the rice over and over again! The rice was used for many different things today. Some kids were “building houses” while others were “cooking different foods.” The jewels were also a big hit for finding “treasure” and talking about the different colors.
Our Thurdsay AM and PM classes had a chance to be chef’s as well to make pumpkin pie in a bag! What a fun experience it was for them as you can see!
