The Touch and Feel Pool was full of sponges and paper towels this morning. We talked about things that you could wash and why we washed them at all. The kids talked a lot of washing dishes and clothes.....but when they got started talking about washing themselves....the body part name game was on. They named all sorts of body parts!
Ms. Michelle was here today with a fun Valentine's obstacle course. First the kiddos had to crawl through the rose petals on the floor and under the Valentine streamers. Then they had to hop along the red balance spots, before ending with a single scoop of hearts into a bowl. We each took two turns....getting faster and definitely more confident on the second turn. Finger fun was three stations of fine motor tasks. One group put candy shaped paper into a heart candy box. One group sorted red and white pom poms using tongs, and the last group scooped out sequined hearts into bowls.
Today's book was Rabbit Ears by Amber Stewart. Hopscotch knows what he likes and what he doesn't like - and he DOESN'T like getting his ears washed. In fact, he'll do just about anything to avoid it. But, when Hopscotch's big cousin Bobtail comes to spend the night and doesn't even flinch when it comes to the dreaded ear-washing hour, Hopscotch makes a startling discovery: big rabbits wash their own ears!
For art we made bubble bath pictures. The kids glued down their bathtubs on blue paper and added a poem abut taking a bath and drying off. Then we added Floam as our bubbles. They turned out super cute....but left a trail all the way down the hallway!
