We hit the kitchen one last time this week and created another simple snack…salsa. A nice, cool, healthy snack for a hot summer day, and don’t forget the blue corn chips! Did you know that blue corn chips have less starch and more protein than the white corn tortilla chips?
We hit the kitchen again today and tried our hand at a healthy snack. We made our own Carrot Muffins and they were delicious!
We are raising children in such a busy world with busy parents, video games, and competitive sports. These influences can be stressful to our little ones over a long period of time. This busy pace can have a large impact on their inner joy-usually not for the better. Children’s yoga can help counter these pressures by learning self-health and relaxation techniques. Early yoga can also act as a physical activity that is not competitive. Children learn body awareness; enhance flexibility, coordination and strength. Yoga also encourages better concentration and an improved sense of calmness and relaxation. We thought this was a great way to end the year!
The final animal we added to our African study was the Dung Beetle…what a curious and icky creature! Click the photo below to view a video of this insect in action.
Why is Mike so Messy? We are focusing on the sight word THERE this week in our book, Messy Mike. The story takes us through all the places our friend, Mike, leaves his banana peels. The kids got a kick out this one and enjoyed it’s simple text which was a nice break from last week’s Buying Cheese. It was a tough book for many of them, but they powered through it.
