First Step Preschool

Today we made the birds some treats to hang outside in our trees!

Today we gave our garbage men cold drinks and snacks! We are so thankful to have sanitation workers who always honk, wave, & are so friendly to the kids! We wanted to show them how much we appreciate them!

Random snapshots from the last few weeks!💕

Thank you to the Hardin County Fire Department for coming this morning and letting the kids see the firetruck. We are so thankful for the great community we live in!

This week was letter C week! Our letter person this week was Mr. Cotton Candy! To celebrate, the Hardin County Senior Center came and showed our kids how cotton candy is made! Everyone got to try the cotton candy and got some to take home with them! Thank you Mallory for always coming and helping with activities!

No one gets more excited for garbage day than these kids! Thankful for sanitation workers who never fail to honk and wave each week!

Snapshots from this week so far!

We love spending time in our cozy reading corner!

During the 2021-2022 school year we read a total of 351 books. I always love to see how many we will end up reading together. Books are so important and such a good way to learn! Each month we have a book of the month that we pick from our book order. We read it together and the parents buy their child a copy to take home. These are the books we did this school year for our book of the month program.

Today we had our second water day of the summer! With it being so hot outside, it was a perfect day for it! We also took turns finger painting outside in our bathing suits! Then we ate popsicles for a treat!

Some outside pictures I snapped this morning! We are loving this weather!💕

Today marks 7 weeks since we planted our cucumbers! They are growing beautifully and we can’t wait to make pickles! 🥒

Today was our first water day of the summer!

Baby Oliver had his first water day this morning! I think he enjoyed laying in his little pool watching the leaves on the trees!💙

Random photos from last week!

I think we are excited it’s Friday! All smiles here!💕

We planted our cucumber seeds 4 weeks ago on Earth Day, and this is how big they’ve gotten! 🥒🌱

Random photos from this week!

Jolene discovered the mirror this week! Look at that cute smile!

We had a tree down during that last big storm we had. When Teen Challenge came to cut and clean it up, I asked if they could cut the trunk into stumps for our playground. It’s been awhile since we’ve had walking/jumping stumps and the kids couldn’t be more excited!

Everyone got to water their plants! 💦🌱

To celebrate earth day, we made recycled starter planters out of play-doh containers and popsicle sticks. We then planted cucumbers both in our planters and some to watch grow throughout the summer! Once their cucumber starters start to grow they will be sent home to be replanted in the ground! We can’t wait to watch them grow! 🌎♻️🌱💙🥒

Today is Earth Day!🌎
The kids brought a recycled project to school to share with the class! We had some super cute & creative projects this year! ♻️

Jolene & Jane Ann matched today!💕
