We continue our “Play, Create, and Explore”week with milk/food coloring art, edible finger paint, and colored hair gel in ziplock bags. Lots of messy activities and hands-on experiences –which we love!! Take a peek at our day:

This week during small groups the children practiced pouring goldfish from a cup to a bowl. We talked about math, science, and volume. The boys and girls also took turns painting fish as the easel blue (color of the month).
The Toddlers used their fine motor skills to pinch and grab cupcake lines as they added “scales” to their fish!
To further our unit on things that fly, we have been exploring outer space this week! The boys and girls strengthened their fine motor skills as well as hand- eye coordination by pulling and sticking stars on paper. Each child made their very own constellation. Some children wanted lots of stars where others chose just a few! We also finger-painted crescent moons. The children love to move their fingers through the smooth, cold paint.
Last week, the Toddlers learned about the letter L. They used their fine motor skills to pinch and grip the small licorice bites as they placed them on the letter L. They did a great job working in teams of two!
The Toddlers are learning about air transportation this week. The children strengthened their fine motor skills by gripping the stampers and coloring the airplane.
