Thanks to everyone who helped with our Christmas party. We had a wonderful time!

Besides being as busy as Santa's elves working on special projects to take home, we spent some time working on our fine and gross motor skills in centers today.

Making sticker pictures is a lot of fun--and it helps us build strong finger and hand muscles!


Linking and unlinking unifix cubes is another way to build our fine motor skills--and practice making patterns!

We built with our giant legos and used our hand puppets in our rug center.

We had such busy centers today that Miss Kathleen didn't have a chance to get her camera out!  (If you noticed a little bit of black paint on our fingers or brown paint on our toes, it's because we were working on a special Christmas project.  It was messy, but fun!)  Here are some pictures from the start of our day when we made some choices and did our morning work.

We had some exciting times at our centers today!  In our Christmas center, we wrapped boxes (and then unwrapped them), put ornaments on our tree (and then took them off again)--and had lots of fun practicing some grown-up Christmas skills.





 At our art center we made some Christmas ornaments and then had to work at getting our fingers clean!


At our rug center, we played with puppets and boxes.  We really enjoyed both of them!

 Some of us got so excited about starting our morning work that we didn't even take our coats off before beginning.  We had a Nativity scene felt board, a new 28 piece Gingerbread Man puzzle, and our tangrams.

  




One of our centers was a little messy today--we used glue sticks, lots and lots of glue sticks!  So when the last group finished, we all helped with clean-up!  We did a really good job too!
