Hello Parents and good afternoon.
This morning Dean and Riley asked Anke to read everyone a story. All the children gathered around on the floor while Anke read to them. The kids were very excited and had a great time. Afterwards we all sang “To Stop A Train.” Then Anthony moved to the hangers area, while Ben and Dean played with cars.
The kindergartens began working on the color yellow again this morning. Then we transitioned to a break out front.
Ben, Luca, Turner, and Braeden decided to play on the bike path. The kids had lots of fun learning and playing together outside.
After some time inside we went to the back to play and learn more. All the kids had a turn painting an egg. They all really loved it and were excited to participate. Anthony and Alex painted golf balls also. Dean and Luca then decided to be firefighters, while Turner and Braeden pumped tons of water for them to use in their rescues.
Asha, Bronwen, Vivian, and Camille decided to make soup at the water pouring station. Maddy and Ava had fun making cakes at the sandbox that were delicious, then later Vivian, Asha, and Riley joined them in their cake making extravaganza. Ben and Luca moved to painting on the big easel and made some great works of art. Then Ben and Braeden went for some fun on the bike path.
We came in to finish some of our time downstairs as the rain was picking up. Braeden, Alex, and Luca used the trains and tracks. Ben was our musician and he played the pegs for everyone, while Bronwen, Anthony, and Camille were using Tambourines in the loft. Asha made birthday cakes, and then joined everyone making music in the loft. Dean used the fire trucks and enjoyed saving the day.
Later Maddy, Vivian, and Ava took advantage of some good hot crayon melt time. The girls had a good time with the restaurant too before the day ended.
Everyone enjoyed this great day and we had fun.
