On the Go

Our theme this week was "On the Go."


Gathering Activity: We did transportation floor puzzles and read stories with our mommies about cars and trucks and trains.

Circle Time: We sang "Little Red Caboose," "Hurry Hurry Drive the Fire Truck," and "The Wheels on the Bus." We told the story "Freight Train" using flannel board pieces and reviewed colors. We watched "Here I Go" from Signing Time.



Art: We painted car shapes using 8 different colors and vehicles with different tire treads.



Activity: We played with the train table and trucks and cars.



Snack: We ate pizza wheels, banana wheels, and grapes!



We missed our friends who were sick!

Our First Day!

Wednesday was our first Mommy and Me Day!

Theme: Rainbow Fish and Colors

Gathering Activity: Colorful Puzzles and Color themed Books read with our Mommies.

Circle Time: We listened to a flannel board story about Rainbow Fish. We sang a fishy song to the little teapot tune. "I'm a little fish in the lake so blue. There are so many things that I can do. I can splash around with my tail and fin. The Water's fine, just jump right in!" Each child got a little fish diecut to swim around with as they sang.

Art: We sponge painted fish to look like rainbow fish and added aluminum foil for sparkly scales and a googly eye.



Outside Play: We played with a colorful parachute and with bubbles. We also played in the water table and added ice cubes that had been dyed different rainbow colors.



Snack: We ate goldfish crackers and tuna fish sandwiches cut into the shape of fish with a cookie cutter. We also ate yummy watermelon!



****Okay Mommies, now I need you to fill in the gaps with more pics!
