When I look back to September it is truly amazing how much we have grown up! In the beginning of the year every child needed assistance washing hands, using the bathroom, finding our totes, opening our lunch boxes, holding scissors. The list goes on and on. This morning as we were washing our hands I realized that most of the children no longer need a stool to reach the sink. They will often tell me they don't need my help, they can do it! Isn't that what we want for them? To feel empowered, to do for themselves. I have seen so much growth this year. I'm so proud of these growing Owls! The children really enjoyed painting their own birdhouses today. They choose the colors they wanted to use and worked diligently to paint every inch of the homes for their feathered friends. Once they are dry they will be going home with the children. We also discussed that birds are all born from eggs. Last week we were supposed to make some Cascarones but our day was so full we ran out of time. So we saved them for today and had fun filling them. The glue will dry and they will be sent home on Friday. The rest of our morning was filled with bird themed games and activities. Looking forward to Friday as we hope to go on a bird watch and make a bird feeder.

Why Blog?Here you will find little snippets of our days together. When my children were in preschool and would come home I would always ask, "So, what did you do today?". All they ever said was, "Played." That didn't tell me much. I hope this blog will be a place to share what we have done and help you ask more directed questions of your child. You will see first hand just what we do after you kiss your little one goodbye in the morning. It will also be a great place to visit and see just how much your child has grown and learned throughout the year. Archives
