March Highlights

Dr. Seuss Day

Today was all about Dr. Seuss! We did a "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish" craft during free play. Ms. Amanda read "In A People House" during circle time and "The Cat in the Hat" during snack . We made a "Cat in the Hat" craft before snack and then we had "Green eggs and Ham" for snack!  After snack we brought out the blocks with Dr. Seuss characters on them and took turns knocking them over with a bean bag!  What a fun day!

Gymnastics Field Trip

We went to Capital Gymnastics today.  The children warmed up upstairs and then we headed down to play on the bars, balance beams, vault and floor equipment.  We heard "This is the best day of my life!" from one of our kids.

Australia

This week we traveled to Australia.  We learned about some of the countries customs, we talked about the Great Barrier Reef, we made boomerangs and a map with native animals. We also looked at some pictures, and touched some sand, shells and coral from Australia.
