Happy Tuesday everyone! Today we painted our hands for hand print turkeys and we will finish them after nap. We also played a few games of octopus domino's,  i love this game as it works on colors for the little kids and patterning with the big kids. We also worked on patterning with our Christmas counters before going outside. They quickly discovered how much faster you slide down the slide with snow pants on!

Breakfast: cereal, banana
Lunch: chicken stir fry/rice, apple
Snack: muffin

Monday.... we did the letter Gg today, Kendra brought us grapes, gummy worms and grape juice in the letter jar. We also made giraffes out of the letter G and made the 5 Little Turkeys for a few finger plays. Today, we started something thanks to an idea I found on pinterest, I wrapped up 24 Christmas books. We have 24 daycare days until Christmas, so each day who ever is the line leader will get to pick one and un-wrap it and that will be one book we will read at nap time. Since they all love to unwrap presents, I'm guessing this will become "a big deal!"!!!



They had so much fun playing out in the snow this morning! They shoveled and shoveled and shoveled and pulled the sleds around. Unfortunately I don't think it's going to last for long this week! 




Breakfast: caramel rolls, oranges
Lunch: roast beef, mashed potatoes, broccoli, bread
Snack: graham crackers and grapes, gummy worms and grape juice!

Happy Tuesday! What a day we had, we turned F's into fish, it turned out to be a lengthy process but they had fun and they do look pretty cute!

I thought it was so nice when we were outside this morning, but it looks as if the wind has picked up :( I've been reading every one's statuses on facebook saying they decorated for Christmas, makes me a little jealous! We hung up a few Christmas things in the playroom this morning just to satisfy me for another week:)) We started making turkeys with our hand prints and we will finish them on Wednesday, it was a little more time consuming painting every one's hand 5 different times!

Breakfast: cereal, grapes
Lunch: ham, mashed potatoes, peas, biscuits
Snack: cinnamon bread sticks

I don't have any pictures for today, but I'll share this one! Brooklyn is 2 months old today..

Happy Friday everyone! We read the book, Tea for Ruby, which talks about using your manners to have tea with the Queen! (I told them I was going to be queen:)) After we read the book, we made our crowns and then had our manners tea party. They are begging for a second this afternoon:)



We also enjoyed our outside time this morning, it is so beautiful out! They had a blast playing in the sandbox!




Breakfast: cereal @ Aylah's request, banana
Lunch: bbq's, french fries, oranges
Snack: pumpkin cookies

Have a great weekend! I think we should have a "normal" week next week as Brooklyn's dr. appt got rescheduled to the 25th.
