We had some music on during Morning Work today and it inspired some dancing!  We were listening to Fandagumbo by Julie Austin.  We especially like the Fandagumbo song--and Skunk Lullaby!

After Morning Work we went outside to enjoy the beautiful weather.  It was perfect for playing on the firetruck, examining bugs, and just hanging out with friends. 

When we got back inside it was time for centers.  At Miss Kathleen's center we worked on another present for out mommies, then we built with Lincoln Logs and made mosaic pictures.  At our rug center we played restaurant.  We had a lot of fun there.  At Miss Paula's center we started our May placemats, then worked on a mystery Frozen puzzle. (Miss Kathleen forgot her camera today so she had to use her phone--and missed out on pictures at Miss Paula's center completely!)

At Miss Kathleen's center, we worked on a present for our mommies, painted butterflies with our fingers, and put together a giant puzzle of a monarch butterfly. At the rug center we had our last day of playing with the Little People.  We can't wait to see what our next rug center will be.  At Miss Paula's center some of us played Candyland while others colored our David and Goliath pictures--the we switched!

We finished our April showers/May flowers pictures today at Miss Kathleen's center.  We've gotten really good at using the glue pots to glue things together.  We were also excited about the glitter that was left on the table once we finished our pictures!  While we waited for our friends, we worked on a giant puzzle of a monarch butterfly.

At Miss Paula's center we worked with all kinds of beads.  Some of us stacked bead patterns on sticks, some of us strung shaped beads onto laces, and others used letter beads to make ABC strings.

At our rug center we had another day of playing with our Little People and vehicles.  We had a lot of fun at this center!

We were so glad to be back at school!  We had a great time checking out the books in our new book crate during Morning Work.  All of these books have an Mm on the back because they're from Mickey Mouse's friends (Walt Disney.)

It was too wet to go to the playground so we took a walk around the park.  Each of us had to find one thing from the ground that was smaller than our hand to bring back in for Miss Kathleen's center.  We looked at all of our treasures under magnifying glasses!  We also finished our "April showers bring May flowers" artwork  We loved messing with all of the glitter that fell off our papers!

At our rug center we played with some new Little People toys.  We even had cars and buses for them to ride!  At Miss Paula's center we worked our fingers with Moon Sand.  We also had some dramatic play there--retelling the story of David and Goliath that we read at Morning Circle!

Happy Easter!

Thank you to everyone who helped make our Easter party so much fun!  We had moon sand, diggers, bubbles, an Easter egg hunt, delicious food, kazoos, bouncing balls, and a hammock!
