The sunshine and rain continue to bring our corner of the world alive. This week the children continued to explore spring magic by:

  • going to the rain garden near the entrance and “swimming”
  • finding a click beetle in the Outdoor Classroom
  • discovering a huge black beetle in the Outdoor Classroom
  • planting seeds to take home
  • cooperating as a class to put together a dragon fly puzzle
  • singing “Head Thorax Abdomen”
  • using a juicer with fresh fruit
  • using weep nets in the meadow to collect tiny insects.
  • making Playdough bugs with natural items, pipe cleaners and googly eyes
  • painting butterflies
  • making our leaf wands for the Flower Ceremony!
