Wednesday, January 8

We made the most of the cold weather today by bundling up and heading outside to find some ice.  We knew it would be cold because the cup of water that we left outside on our windowsill had frozen.  We checked out the fountain in the garden and found that it was frozen solid--with icicles!  Then we headed over to the old playground field where the sprinklers had been left on overnight.  The grass and bushes and soccer net were all covered in ice!  It was so cool!  We explored for a few minutes, then took our cold fingers back inside to warm up.

 

After we cam inside and warmed up, we had our centers.  We had another day of playing with the Little People house and garage at our rug center.  At Miss Paula's center, we finished our January placemats and then made some sticker pictures.  At Miss Kathleen's center we painted with wintery colors of blue and purple and silver.  We found a surprise on our paper as we continued to paint.  Each of our names was printed on our paint papers with a white crayon.  That was really cool!
