Jack o'lanterns and Baby Dance Parties!

We had a fabulous Tuesday today! The day started outside investigating dirt as well as a small bee who seemed to be at the end of his little life. We observed him together on the upside-down sensory table, and set him free over the fence. We went inside for some book reading and snack time, and quickly moved to circle time. We had fun talking about squares and sitting in squares, as well as having space. Dom read a cute story about monsters called "The Monster Who Lost his Mean" and the kiddos were engrossed. Then, we went to the tables to work on our lovely little Jack O'lanterns. We talked about triangles, half circles, where the eyes go, the mouth goes, and where we might want to put the stem of the pumpkin! Every one had fun figuring out where to put their shapes. Look on the wall near the the sign-in sheet for the little masterpieces! After we finished up, we headed outside where Toni and Dom's dogs, Teddy and Soy were hanging out. We learned about giving the dogs space sometimes, and being gentle with them! Then, Toni started a fun game of Ring Around the Rosie which lasted quite a while. 

We went in for lunch and nap, and when we woke up, it was time for an awesome Yo Gaba Gaba dance party. We took the babies to the carpet and took turns dancing with babies and being gentle with them! We got our shoes on and ended our day outside...it was fun fun fun!

Love,
Jackie
