Bubbles, Pumpkins and the Outdoors!

We had a small group today, which allowed us to do a lot of different things. We missed our friends who were absent though, and hope they feel better soon! We started the morning with some cheerios and bubbles in our classroom. The babies got really into popping the bubbles. Genevieve stared at the bubbles intently and then popped them with her finger. She also liked saying "pop". Jackson also enjoyed watching the bubbles and popping them and he even started saying "bubble". Julia watched them land around her and she reached out and tried to pop some of them. Judah was also very interested in the bubbles and how they popped. 

When we were done with the bubbles we moved to the deck where we played with balls, climbed the slide, used the walkers and little trikes, and climbed in and out of the little house. Jackson particularly enjoyed climbing through the openings in the house with the slide. He also spent some time playing with a leaf of kale, which he examined and touched his tongue to but didn't eat. Genevieve enjoyed bouncing the big read ball and climbing in and out of the house. Julia played with a soccer ball, which she rolled and held. Judah had a blast using one of the walkers to walk all over the deck! Toni also brought out some small pumpkin that the children got to explore.

After lunch we did an art project. Check back for more about our Halloween art project!
