Had to share... yesterday we spelled out our names with spray cheese on the crackers! 

Geo-boards! 


HoHoHo



We did a religious project today--> It says, "Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in Heaven" We also did the letter Aa today and they had fun stamping their fingerprints on other paper as well. Then, we did a few flannel board stories! 

After lunch, I was picking up some things to put away as I think with this younger group, less is more!  I started in the kitchen set and they wanted it moved to the other side, so we did and they were all playing so nice together!

L: stuffed shells, peaches
