Our creative juices were flowing this week! We used a few household items to help create some of our sea creatures. For example, we used a large pasta shell for our sea snail and a sock for our octopus! Red tissue paper came in handy when making our crabs.
At our sand and water center, we tried something new. We let our imagination run wild and played with toy sea creatures in a bucket of water! It was a hit!! At circle time, we discussed and passed around barnacles, a whale tooth, a shark tooth, sand dollars and sea stars! It was neat to explore the different textures and sizes!
Our visit to the book fair went well! I hope you are all enjoying the new books with your children. Thank you to everyone who purchased books for our room!
Since the weather is getting warmer we will be playing outside a bit more. Please remember to send your child in with sunscreen on and an extra bottle of water. Our room is air conditioned so you may also want to send in a little zip up jacket! Enjoy your three day weekend and have a happy and safe Memorial Day!
