We have been busy playing, sledding and building outside! Tuesday's early morning rain made for the perfect snow to build a snowman! We have been reading many stories about snowfall, snowballs and snowmen. Everyone was so excited to learn that they could make a small snowball and roll it all around the playground and watch it grow! We gathered rocks for the eyes and mouth, sticks for the arms and a carrot for the nose! As an inside activity we began creating a perfect square collage inspired by Michael Hall's book Perfect Square. Children were given a square piece of paper and encouraged to cut, rip, crumple and hole punch the shape. With the new pieces they each created their own picture along with a story. We are currently working on this project and our new bulletin board is taking shape...I love all of the creativity! Please remember to pack your child a snack each day and a change of clothes. The current weather is very unpredictable and many days our outdoor fun creates a lot of wet outerwear and sometimes leaks through.
