All Aboard....Choo Choo! (Krista's Group)

The baby love is picking up steam! Ave brought Annabelle and Darla to school today. Anika introduced us to her baby, Lila, and Mia brought in her new born baby, as well. The emphasis was on feeding the babies, and there was some discussion about the best way to get the babies to drink their bottles. Tomorrow, I'll try to record some of the baby care dialogue.

Because we have expanded, it is necessary for us to be a bit more organized in the way that we transition through various parts of the day. We have been encouraging the children to form choo-choo train lines when they move between rooms. It's been fun introducing terms like, caboose, conductor and freight. Does anyone happen to have one of those wooden train whistles? We'd love to borrow one!

Creative expression was inside and out today. In the Atelier, the children blended watercolors on wet paper. Outside, they used large brushes and their hands to paint an abstract acrylic mural on a large piece of canvas.

Our yoga practice was centered around a rainbow meditation. We also rain danced our fingers over our bodies and practiced sunshine breathing (aka: breath of fire).
