Oh nooo..!

We want to cook but our kitchen is dirty 😱

Have no fear my cleaning crew is here 😅

HAPPY 4TH BIRTHDAY LORELAI 🥳

Washing the spaceship to get it ready for blast off to next weeks outer space theme 🌔

Couldn't help but take a mini photo shoot while we sing 5 in the bed & practice rolling over. 🐒

Me: Let's goo on a worm hunt!

Kids: Ooo... Yeah!

Kids: heyy look spiders!!

Me: 👀😝

Themed 🦋 Child led 🦆 Play based 🐢

Today the sensory table outside turned into a pond 🐸

Some might be thinking.... 🤔 What are they learning?

While some might think that they're just playing with toys.

What we're actually doing is...

🔢 Identifying numbers/counting
** How many ducks do you see?
** Can you find the number 5?

🔡 Learning different sounds
** What sound does a duck make?
** Frog starts with Ff (make the f sound)

🤓 Using our imagination
** used a cut up pool noodle for the "lily pads"

💧 What do you see at a pond?
** When they respond we work together to see if we can find it... Sticks, flowers, rocks, turtles, frogs/tadpoles, ducks, fish, birds etc.

👄 Then of course while we play there's always great conversations.
** Circle of life** "Did you know that there are different stages of tadpoles?"
** "If you wanted to catch a turtle, fish, or butterfly. What might you use to catch them?"

Also by allowing the children to decide the activity and follow their lead it helps build their self-confidence, build our bond, and support their natural brain development. 🥰

Tried something new today! 😍

Instead of painting with paint brushes or sponges. They painted with flowers, sticks, pinecones, and rocks!

Catching bugs, enjoying the weather, and working together to do simple tasks throughout the day ✨️

Happy Thursday 😊

Teamwork, baking, and a happy baby! ✨️
