Today, on this National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we read the book, "Today is Orange Shirt Day." It was generously donated to us a year or two ago, with the promise of me reading it on Orange Shirt Day.
Written by the founder of Orange Shirt Day, it is a beautiful story, reminding us that today, and every day, every child matters.

The end of summer brought another sad good bye for us. A best friend headed off to kindergarten, and left my house a little quieter. We are so grateful for the fun we have had, and can't wait for PD Days when he is back for more fun.

It's a dance party kind of day! These two have been turning on the music and dancing the day away. The best part, is of course, the fun they are having. If that simply isn't enough for you though, I am happy to share the learning. Cause and effect for the music (I press the button, music plays), balance, coordination, and propreoception. Pride and happiness, and the little one is still learning that I am a safe person, in a safe house, where mom and dad will always come back to pick him up. It's all in a day's play.

Today I brought out shaving cream for everyone to explore. It's such a fun sensory experience. Soft and fluffy, slightly moldable, and sticky - not in the traditional sticky honey sense, but rather sticky as in, it gets all over and it's hard to shake off of you. It was definitely a hit.

Look what we found! This was a great learning experience for us.

I've had the pleasure of learning alongside so many children that goodbyes aren't new to me. That doesn't mean they are any easier though. In fact, some of them seem to be harder than they used to be, and I think that's because my own children now have to say good bye as well. Yesterday was this munchkins last day with us so we saw him off with the cupcakes of his choosing.

Today we decided to check out a new, local restaurant! The kids menu had pictures on it, making it easy for them to decide what they wanted to eat. When they server came for our order, each child took a turn telling the server what they wanted.
The food was delicious, the children were able to practice new skills, and they had a blast!

This little one is learning new skills everyday! In the past few weeks since he started, he has learned to stand, walk, and now easily get on and off the ride on toys. He spent most of yesterday's, and this morning's outdoor time climbing on and off. Many times he lost his balance, got a leg caught, and ultimately was unsuccessful. He never gave up, and never seemed to get frustrated. Each time he tried again, he learned something about where and how to position himself. When he was finally able to climb on easily, he clapped, and gave the biggest, cheekiest, and proudest grin ever.
Sometimes learning is easy to spot, like in this example. Sometimes you need to have a bit more understanding of child development to see the learning. No matter the case though, know your child is ALWAYS learning something while they play.

The summer has just flown by and I realized I haven't added in much messy play. That changed today with the addition of goop (or ooblek). These kids dug right in, exploring the cool properties of goop - solid yet also liquid.

New toys means learning new skills! Climbing on a rope ladder adds an extra challenge. The pay off? A new way to swing.
