Thank you to Sarah & her Family!

Our group is really enjoying the larger legos that you all donated to our class! Thank you so much.

The children had such fun exchanging Valentines. We did this at circle time. Each child passed theirs out around the circle. It was especially helpful to our new student, to put the names with faces. We matched our bags with our pictures. The children are so patient and good during circle time, they will do great in the 3 year old class next year! We then had storytime and valentine counting, math matching! The children are really catching on with "what's missing?" in our sequencing exercises.

Handing out Valentines...

More from Wednesday Movement Class

Using scoops and bean bags to work on our hand to eye coordination. The children would use the scoops to toss the bean bag into the air and try to catch it with the large scoops. They loved using these scoops and were quite successful and catching the bean bags! Great Job!!!

Movement Class Update...

In Movement class Wednesday, we played with the parachute using our strong leg and arm muscles. We pulled it up... and then back down. Lots of fun!

Making Snowflakes - from January

This was a cute art project we did in January. The children used glue & glitter to pour the "ice" onto the snowflake.
Then, we blew cold air onto the snowflakes...making them "icey cold"....

They are quite beautiful and we hung them in our classroom tree.

Welcome to February!

We started February off with a snow shower! The children enjoyed watching the shiny flurries from our classroom window. We painted at the easel special Valentine's Hearts with our colors of the month red & pink.

Mia is the "mother" of the class lately, offering her help to all of her friends. She is a sweetie!

The children are showing more of an interest lately, with our puzzles. Ms. Beth & I enjoy that with our small group, we can give them individualized attention.

Music Notes: This past week, Miss Elizabeth told the story of Jesus using 5 loaves and 2 fishes to feed the crowd of 5,000 ~ with leftovers! We also caught "snowflakes" with our fingers as they fell to the ground They all love the bubbles!

We can't wait for it to get warm enough to return to play on the playground! Hope you all are enjoying the milder temperatures and lots of outside play for this week. Hopfully, we can return

to the playground in the coming weeks.

We are so proud of our boys and girls who are wearing big kid underwear! Congrats to your parents too! It can be a scary transition, but the children are VERY proud of themselves when that part of toddlerhood is over. If you develop a routineof going to the potty, just like brushing your teeth or having rest time - you will find the chance for accidents is greatly reduced.

I so much enjoyed our conferences and the chance to talk with you all. Thank you so much for taking the time to come and chat. Mrs. Beth & I so much enjoy your children--Thank you for sharing them with us!
