All About Me: Hands & Fingers!

Hello, families!


I hope you've had a wonderful week thus far. As for our week in the "new" classroom it has been quite calm, everyone is taking to their new surroundings really well! I'm so excited that the babies are loving the change of space and the new toys/materials that have been added to the play area. :) 


This week was basically introduction week, so we decided to extend last week's theme- *Hands & Fingers* I would also like to apologize for not posting a blog last week without any notification, after this week we should be back on regular schedule; Yay!


Some activities the babes got to experience last week were: creating art using their hand prints, the part I'm sure the babes enjoyed most from this activity was being able to squish the cold paint in the palm of their hand. We also created a farewell card for Claire! We helped Claire and Austin walk around the circle of friends during circle time so that they could practice giving hugs to each other and the rest of the class, since this was her last week with us. It was a very sweet hug-filled circle time!! 
Some other fun activities they joined in on were: banging on various drums solely using our hands, as I read the book of the week! 

Oh gosh, we squeezed so many activities that require the babes to use their hands into our days and we had an absolute blast with each activity!


Songs of the week:
(It's a classic I'm sure you're familiar with) 
1. Where is thumpkin.

2. Ten little fingers


Book of the week:
Hand, Hand, Fingers, Thumb


**Have a wonderful weekend!** 


Love,
Crystal
