Rainy Day Play

By -
Today we had friendship group with Ms Ann.  We made a big spider web by sticking together.  Way to go friends!

Friends continued painting with nature items.  Somehow sticks turned into bones, pine needles transformed to cat whiskers, and a few leaves were bat wings.




 Dancing bones!





Dough was used to make food for the kitchen.



M discovered a small white spider climbing on our blocks.
Come look at this baby spider!  He's so cute.
J:  He's probably lost from his family in here.
P:  You know spiders get bigger and bigger.
The boys gently placed the block the spider was on and moved it to the shelf.
M:  Maybe we can keep him here and he can crawl down.

Such compassion and care for the smallest of creatures.

Practicing mindfulness

Science Experiment

One of our favorite science activities is using baking soda and vinegar.  There are so many different ways to experiment with them.  Check out the video below for a fun idea!  I also like to add food coloring to small cups/jars of vinegar.  You can use any kind of dish to spread out baking soda.  Then with a dropper add the different colors of vinegar to it.  You can use medicine droppers, straws, or even small spoons to add the liquid to the powder. What did you observe?  Here is how it went out at our house. Kennedy and Keegan in action  Even my 5th grader Kellan was amazed!  When they were done they wanted to pour the cups out to see what would happen.  So cool!
