Free-playing Friday

We set out for an easy-going Friday, and that's just what we had! Joey and Alanna joined forces with Cherokee and Arielle to take care of some younger friends in the pre-tot room. They hung out with Ancel and Olive! You'll have to check the pre-tot blog to see what they did :)

Meanwhile, Ben, Bennett, Jasper, Theo, Teo, Wren, Annabelle, and Paislie hung out with us! We did some exploring in the different areas of the room, did a quick circle time, and headed to the deck for a musical time with the Pre-tots. We did Jackie's wiggling song, where the most fun part is to wiggle, then Stop! Freeze! and Stick out your tongue! We threw balls, rolled them, and Dom showed us how she can toss a ball on the awning and watch it roll down! After hanging out on the kangaroo climber and driving cars, we came in for lunch and nap. We had lots of cuddle time in the dim light; Wren, Ben, Bennett, Theo and Jasper dog- piled on Dom while Paislie, Teo, and Annabelle laughed and observed the rough and tumble play!

After that, every one freely explored the room. Annabelle spent time taking Piggy around the room and having Piggy help her with small duties, like rolling up her nap mat! Jasper and Teo had fun moving stools around to peek out the window. Jasper was very busy either reading or jumping around and falling on the nap mats! Paislie was busy putting gloves on over and over again. Bennett wanted to make things tidy, so he "put it ( his sippy cup) up" over and over.  Ben was really into reading today saying "I read this book" and finding lots of different options. Wren was busy finding all the the things that are "up there" in our room and poking them with different objects.

Well, today was just an easy-going Friday. Our guys enjoyed lots of peaceful free-play, hugs, and high fives. We hope to see every one, including Ivy and Koichi on Monday!
