Journal 3.7.14

It was a busy Friday as the children geared up for the day.  Alex came in with a huge grin on his face and made an announcement: “I’m gonna be three on my birthday.” And then headed over to the table and worked on the Bob the Builder puzzle with Vivian. Asha and Riley arrived and headed to the writing center. They used the scissors to cut out shapes and added stickers for decoration. Elsa came in and headed to the art area. She decided that she wanted to use the dog toys and purple paint to make her masterpiece. Over on the black carpet Dean was busy with the cars. Ben spent a few minutes watching the fish and then joined Dean at the carpet. The two of them lined up their cars as they got ready to start their race. Over at the hair shop, Camille was busy fixing Anke’s hair while Rhys listened his favorite story Tikki Tembo. A few minutes later, Alex and Kaito helped set up the table for breakfast.

After breakfast the group headed outside for some fun and exploration. Maddy and Vivian were Swiper foxes running around the playground swiping things here and there. Over in the grass, Kaito and Dean started a game of soccer. Up on the tower Asha, Elsa, Luca and Ella J climbed up the rock wall and slid down the slide. Down below, Camille and Bronwen were keeping house. After taking several turns on the slide, Asha, Elsa and Ella J went to visit the girls in the house. They were getting ready to have a grand party and needed to get some groceries. Off they headed to the grocery store to get their food for the party.   The bike path was busy as usual as Ben, Turner, Maddy, Vivian, Alex and Rhys zipped around the path on their speedy bikes. Riley set up a hot chocolate stand and sold it to the bikers as they passed by.

Around back Dean and Luca were busy pouring water and playing Hide and Seek. The sandbox was full of busy workers preparing and making food for their restaurant. Kaito, Maddy, Vivian, Asha, Bronwen, Camille and Riley got to work making vanilla and chocolate mashed potatoes and chocolate cake. Up on the porch Ella J, Turner, Alex and Elsa were busy crafting beautiful pictures for family and friends. Rhys spent some time in the sandbox and then decided to write with some chalk on the sidewalk.
