"Flour" Power :)

We started our Thursday inside, Jasper, Paislie, Theo and our great friend Miya all watched as I cut morning snack, apples! They had so much energy I had to take a break and we all marched outside to the playground. Once out, they explored the sandbox and dome climber while our other friends arrived, we also had a special friend come hang out with us. Toni's cousin, Airy, who is also 2 spent most of the day with us, she was very excited to meet new friends, and everyone welcomed her with open arms! :)  We ran and ran around the playground chasing our friends until everyone was tired then we marched inside for snack.  We washed hands and sat for snack, it was quick as we made out back out for sensory exploration, before we started our activity, Ms Jackie read "The Fly and The Spider", all my friends sat and looked at the pictures, we pointed out the spiders, flies and other insects in the book! Once we were done, we all migrated to the sensory table, where we explored FLOUR! It was such an awesome experience, and they loved the heck out of it.  Ivy, Alanna, Paislie and Wren all used scoopers to scoop the flour, while Teo, Theo, Asher and Joey explored with their hands! Jasper was busy with our new friend, Airy, they were going down the slide together, laughing and running back up To go down again! Wren had so much fun blowing and throwing the flour up in the air, Teo loved clapping his hands and watching the flour go everywhere! After a while they thought it was hilarious to chase Jackie around pretending to throw flour at her! Once the flour was all gone we made our way in for lunch, and nap!

After nap, we read books and had a special, super long cuddle time! We were done with diapers and milks just as Ms Leona started Spanish.  We sang and danced to the music, then Ms Leona closed out circle time with a book in Spanish! We had a yummy snack of hummus and multi grain chips, than washed hands. Got pants, socks and shoes on and marched out to the playground, where my friends explored the playscape and dome climber! Such a great Thursday!

Much Love
Dom and Jackie

Airy is such a cutie, and she looks so relaxed and at home with her new buddies! Glad to hear that she was welcomed with open arms. Those flour pictures are adorable...and using it this way was a great idea, we may have to steal that one around here! As usual, reading the blog was a highlight of the day, thanks again

Flour - brilliant! What a great idea, I can tell how much Ivy and all of the others were into it. Also, the toddler room looks great in all of the pictures, especially the full room photo shots with Ms. Leona during Spanish class. Ivy, Alanna and Teo look like they're especially enjoying themselves. And I agree with Susan - Airy is a cutie.
