How O is spending his days...


Happy Happy Friday Starfish Families!

It has been a long, crazy, adventurous, fun week with your children! We wrapped up our All About Me theme today with the book "My Happy Heart."  This book talks about what makes a little boy's heart happy and each child had a chance to share what makes his/her heart happy, too!

We wanted to take advantage of the nice weather this morning so we went on a walk. It was only our third walk of the new school year, and the kids did awesome! We sang songs as we walked such as "ABCs," "Itsy Bitsy Spider," "Days of the Week," and "Twinkle Twinkle."  The kids really enjoyed being out and about on campus and were not shy about saying hello to the college students passing by. We saw several squirrels and had fun counting trees and bikes. One of the highlights of our walk was the "tunnel" we walked through by Rodli.  Miss Laura and I let the kids run around in a grassy patch between Centennial Science Building and the University Center. Racing was a favorite activity!  Your children ran A LOT today! On our walk back to the center we talked about the weather, what day of the week it was, and that tomorrow is a stay at home day. The kids and teachers alike had a great time on our walk!

Next week our theme is Apples! We will explore painting with applesauce, cutting open apples and using magnifying glasses to examine the seeds, and much more! I'm looking forward to another fun-filled, active week with your toddlers! Have a wonderful weekend!
