Parents,

We had a busy day today!  Our bears came out of hibernation and we made forest homes to put them in. 

We got to be bears in the forest in yoga class too!

We read a very, very funny story called Stuck, by Oliver Jeffers.  Ask your kids what got stuck in a tree in the story! 

           

We got the bikes out on the playground today for the first since the winter set in.

Our Story today was "And Then It's Spring," by Julie Fogliano and Erin Stead.  It is a really cute story about waiting for 'green' to start growing in the spring.

We are having lots of fun with singing and creative movement activities.  Some current favorites are:  "Head and Shoulders Baby" and "Pitter Patter Rain Drops."

Today was our first day to open our sandbox in the playground.

Planted seeds:

Used team work with tubes and ramps:

Read a story called Snow Rabbit, Spring Rabbit:

Sang a song: Pitter patter rain drops falling from the sky,
                     Here is my umbrella to keep me warm and dry,
                     When the rain is over, the sun begins to glow,
                     Little flowers start to bloom and grow and grow and grow!
                      (to the tune of Sing a Song of Sixpence)

and enjoyed a very large lunch bunch with 16 kids!

Have a great weekend!

Today we all had fun when Dara came to sing with us.  The children especially liked Dara's chant "Once there was a quiet mouse, who lived inside a quiet house.  When all was quiet as can be, out popped HE!"  Ask the kids what happened when we all said "HE!"  They also had fun doing a freeze dance to the song "Rockin' Robin."
