Pumpkin week 10/20-24th

This week we explored pumpkins, we enjoyed looking at different kinds of pumpkins, we compared them, we looked at a big pumpkin and also a little ones too. Each child got one of their own small pumpkins to paint and bring home!

We also traced and cut out pumpkin on paper, and painted it orange.

Another art project we did was painted our hand and made pumpkins that way, the children loved the feeling of wet paint on their hands. Fun sensory!

To get ready for our Halloween party we decorated the front door, we also made cookies for our party next Thursday! We are so excited!! (Remember to click on the pictures to see gallery)

Harvest week Oct 13th-17th

This week we are talking about harvest and what we do for harvest, We made a "garden" in our home living area, the kids loved picking fruits and vegetables. We also did some fun projects, we went on a nature walk and picked up leaves, acorns, pine cones, rocks and more to make a nature collage.

Each child got a strawberry cut out and we painted with kool-aid, The kids could smell it and paint with it, fun sensory!

Another fun project we made native corn, the children each got a cut out of a corn cut out, and bubble wrap, they painted the bubble wrap orange, yellow, and brown after they where done, they placed the bubble wrap onto the paper to make kernels.
