Another Fun Day


Today the kids really enjoyed doing their M page. We made mittens muddy with chocolate pudding-which they also made. I gave them the option of painting with their fingers or a giant marshmallow. Most of them stayed pretty clean by using the marshmallow-Garen gets the award for getting chocolate pudding over most of his body and Carter wins the award for being the most worried about getting it on him. :)

Also today we laid down on big paper and traced our bodies, then filled in the face, hair, clothes, etc. I guess laying on a piece a paper to be traced is scarier than I thought so we had some brave helpers lay down for the kids who choose not to. They turned out pretty interesting. We will finish coloring them in on Monday and then you're welcome to come down and take a peek at some of your kid's artwork that is hanging up.
The class loved playing the game, guess what body part this is and who it belongs to. (I zoomed in on different parts of each kid and printed the pictures).
Today was our first attempt at cutting. When you have the opportunity please practice this skill with your child. We will be using the scissors often and I cant do hand over hand cutting with 6 kids at the same time.
We missed Kristinah today, the class wasn't the same without her!
