Today was a boot day! Lots of mud after the wonderful rain last night. Yipee!
AM Snack: organic strawberries, water
Lunch: "breakfast" casserole with local potatoes, sausage, organic eggs and milk, colby jack cheese, orange juice
PM Snack: pistachio kernels, craisins, water
Classroom Highlights:
Infant Room: Emma practiced crawling, Gage exercised his legs by sitting, then standing on Janie's lap, and Lorelai enjoyed "rolling" around the room. There was lots of laughing and smiling in the infant room.
Toddler Room/Twos Room: The children were excited to discover a toad in the treehouse. They were excited to see it hop around, and the kids loved getting muddy outside. The children went on a farm walk, sang, danced, and rolled a large ball across the classroom!
PreK: Everyone had fun doing the morning farm chores. The children got to watch the farrier work on Abby our minature donkey. The class continued its discussion of rocks, and today talked about gems. The class made crowns with gems and then pretended that they were kings and queens.
Summer Camp: Today the class enjoyed finishing their sewing project--sewing and stuffing their felt pillows with Allison Sutton. A long "dog" play scenario was enjoyed again today. After lunch, the class had fun playing badminton and volleyball on the front lawn. (Thanks to Sarah Justice and Jesse Castaneda for setting up the net last night.) The kids couldn't wait to get back to their volleyball game after PM snack! During quiet time, the several "campers" enjoyed doing some artwork with paper, glue sticks, and scissors. They placed their work on display in the classroom. In the late afternoon, they fed the farm animals and put the animals away for the night.
