At the table today we drove cars through paint and drove them on butcher paper all across the table. It was so much fun to see the different kind of tracks the different cars made. We have been working really hard on waiting our turn during large group activities. It is a difficult skill to learn, and requires a lot of self control! In the gym today we rolled hula-hoops to each other and had fun trying to hula-hoop.

At the table today we used stamps and stamp pads. The kids had so much fun with the petting farm. There were sheep, a llama, baby goats, baby chicks and baby ducks. We were so thankful the weather held out and we stayed dry. This week we area beginning a Transportation theme and will sing an all time favorite song "The Factory Song". We sing about a car, train, motorcycle, bus and helicopter.
Today we painted with watercolors. After we painted we put glue all over our paper and sprinkled salt on the glue. We observed what happened when we put the glue and salt on our paint. Some of our paint dispersed when we put the glue and salt on and some of the paint stayed the same. We enjoyed bubbles and explored with sidewalk chalk on the playground today. They had fun chasing the bubbles! Have a wonderful weekend!
Today we made animal tracks at the table. We put the feet of our plastic animals in brown paint and made muddy tracks on paper. We have been singing a song called "Open, Shut Them" at circle. We open and shut our hands, clap, and put them in our lap. Then we open and shut our hands to the varying sounds of the music. The kids REALLY enjoy this song. We hear lots of happy laughing during this song!
Today we did stickers at the table. Stickers are a great way to promote fine motor skills. We enjoyed a lot of outside time today with the beautiful weather.
