Preschool for Parents

They are measuring stuff with their snack...raisins.
We are super excited to pilot a new program in our area. For now we are calling it Preschool for Parents... I hope you were there. It was a blast!
Parents, Grandparents, Babysitters, and adults in these little guys lives are always welcome to join in! These are some fun things we did:


This is a little guy, his dad, and his "PuhPuh".(G-Pa)       They are playing a math game.


More snack time...
This was completely adorable... a little guy and his grandpa are having a tea party!!!!

These guys are exploring colors and physical properties with the light table and some building disks...

This brave dad sat down for a round of memory... we are learning to match capitals with lower case, and they had a huge game of 52 cards going!




10 in the bed




We did a small unit on bears a few weeks ago. The kids absolutely loved it. One day we did the nursery rhyme,"10 in the bed". We started with the finger play, then we got a huge sheet out and actually laid 10 preschoolers out on the "bed". We sang: 10 in the bed and the little one said "Roll over, Roll over." They all rolled over and one fell off... One preschooler would fall of the bed and we would count down. It was hilarious and they loved it.

After we finished that, we had Teddy grahams, and a bed board. They put ten in the bed and we sang it all over again. But this time when we said they all rolled over and one fell off, he fell right into our mouths!

A Visit from the Queen of Hearts



We were super lucky to have the queen of hearts come to school today and read us a story... We had a great time listening to her silly songs and her fun stories! We do love that crazy library lady!

We sang about LOVE... and the kids were hilarious.
