Making capes, Yogurt parties & Watermelon slushies,

This week is the last week for Colette, Elliot and Dax, they will be starting Kindergarten.  It's also the last week for Miss Ivy, she will be starting a new Montessori school.  This week we will be spending our time giving these friends extra love and hugs.  We will also be focusing out art and cooking projects around them,

Monday:  We spent most of the morning outside enjoying the cool breeze we were having.  We came in before lunch to do some Montessori work.  A lot of our friends focused their time on our new puzzles Mr. Charlie, from the Pre Tot class donated to the Sunflower's.  This afternoon we enjoyed yoga with Miss Liz, also giving her extra love and hugs because she will be traveling to India very soon.  

Tuesday:  This morning during Montessori work time Jasper and Joey made up their own dice game.  They each rolled a die, then made either a subtraction or an addition math problem from the numbers they rolled!  How impressive!  During our family meeting time after nap we took time for take our art off the walls and put it in our cubbies.  We also enjoyed ants on a log for snack and some playtime on the deck.

Wednesday:  This morning we extended our Montessori work time because all of our friends were very focused.  Some of our wanted to help their teachers put art work from our walls in their friends cubbies.  We enjoyed Show and Tell after nap this afternoon, also Spanish with Miss Daphne! YAY!

Thursday:  Today is Elliot's last day at Green Sprout :(   This morning we had a car wash in the backyard with all of out friends from all three classes.  We also celebrated Elliot starting Kindergarten, this afternoon, with his favorite snack, Pita chips. 

Friday:  This morning along with our dance party outside we blew up balloons for a balloon party!  We also went inside to enjoy a very special morning snack, we had yogurt with strawberries, raisins, and rasberries.  THe Sunflowers really enjoyed our yogurt party!  We then went back outside to make capes!  We cut t-shirts to make then capes then used puff paint to decorate them.  This afternoon we had another special snack followed by a black light dance party in our new capes! The Sunflower's absolutely loved seeing their capes and paint glow int he black light.  What an amazing end to an amazing week, celebrating the last day of some beloved Sprouts.
