More Christmas Fun at Daycare!

Last Friday the preschoolers had a great time making Christmas trees. They frosted sugar cones and then attached candy ornaments to their trees. The children at the baby home made handprint Christmas trees.

Preschool Christmas Preparations

The Christmas preparations continue at daycare and several different projects are in the works. Today the preschool class made beautiful wrapping paper with Amber! The children had fun and were very focused on this activity.

The Babies Made Pinecone Ornaments

Yesterday the babies enjoyed making pine cone ornaments. They had a lot of fun painting the pine cones with glue and then rolling them in bowls of beautiful glitter!

Preschool Christmas Preperations

During the last week the children began preparing for Christmas. They put up a Christmas tree and then made snowman ornaments with teacher Helen. Each child picked and glued an outfit for their snowman. Helen asked them what they want to get as a present for Christmas and fulfilled their wishes by giving their snowman a gift. We put the snowmen up on the preschool Christmas tree and they will take home their ornament during Winter Break.

It was fun to find out what the children's Christmas wishes are. Lucy wanted to help Helen. Leo would like a lion and Hugh wants a choo choo train to share with Roland. Kaylee asked for toys and Kendra desires a ladybug. Josie just wants Christmas!

Pumpkin Prints at the Preschool

Thursday the preschoolers cut open a pumpkin to explore and do art with. They looked at the seeds and pulp under the microscope. Then they used cut up chunks of the pumpkin to make Halloween prints. The kids had a great time doing art and learning Chinese with Helen and Amber.

Day Care Halloween Party

The Halloween Party will be held October 30 in the playschool gym at 3:30. Amber and Kimberly have fun games and activities planned for the kids including a pinata. Everyone is invited to attend and parents are welcome to join their children. Please remember to bring your child's costume to school. The teachers will help children change into their costumes after nap. I hope everyone can come!

Nearly Everyone is Healthy Again!

Nearly everyone is back at day care and healthy again. Things were a bit crazy last week trying to keep ratios intact with teachers and kids being absent. We managed by having the preschoolers join their friends at the baby house. The kids had a great time playing together and the teachers took a few pics of the kids outside.
