We made play-dough together this week! This is a beloved activity in the morning class, and we loved sharing the experience with the Afternoon friends this week. The children worked with Ju-milia to scoop, pour, mix and mush all the ingredients together to make a fresh batch of green play dough. Everyone had ideas of what to make; Eli announced, “I’m making latkes!” as he sculpted flat round shapes, and Naomi generously shared her creation with Jasmin: “I made some really delicious noodles, do you want some?” Willy experimented with our play-dough scissors, and Briar quietly sang Happy Birthday after making a play-dough cake with popsicle-stick candles.
We also had tons of fun in our snowy yard! Friends were abuzz with excitement as they shoveled snow and drove construction trucks through the icy terrain. We love the opportunity to explore ice and snow in the yard together.
Here are a few more photos from the week, including of a beanbag tossing game we played — the children had helped us fill the bean bags with corn from our sensory table a few weeks ago!
