β˜”οΈRainy Day = LIBRARY Adventure FUN! πŸ“š

We kicked things off with a silly dance party πŸ’ƒπŸ•Ί, then cozied up for stories and riddles πŸ“–πŸ€”. We learned all about April Fool’s Day πŸ€ͺβ€”and even caught Ms. Courtney with β€œspiders” on her head! πŸ•·οΈπŸ˜‚ β€œApril Fool’s!”

At the art table 🎨, we created colorful rainbow fish 🐠🌈 with glue and tissue paper, then played a super fun hide-and-seek game with them πŸ‘€πŸŸ!

So many laughs, stories, and smilesβ€”what a FUN day! πŸ’™

🐰🎨 Easter Bunny Fun! 🎨🐰

Today the kids got creative and made the cutest bunny art! Using rolled-up paper for the bunny, they added their own special touches: glued ear pieces, whiskers, button noses, and of course, googly eyes πŸ‘€

Each bunny turned out completely unique, just like the kids who made them! πŸ’• It was so fun to see their creativity shine and their personalities come through in their artwork.

We love celebrating Easter with hands on fun like this! 🌷🐣

🐣🌸 Easter Chick Craft Fun! 🌸🐣

Our little artists had so much fun making these adorable chicks! πŸ’›

Kids used sponge painting to create the fluffy chick bodies, then added their own creative touch by gluing on feet, rosy cheeks, tiny beaks, and googly eyes πŸ‘€πŸ₯

It’s a perfect hands on craft for building fine motor skills and letting creativity shine. Happy Monday!

The Ants Go Marching 🐜🎢

Today was full of creativity and messy fun! 🎨✨ The children made beautiful artwork using ripped green paper to create grass and finger-painted tiny ants crawling all around. πŸœπŸ’š

It was such a joy to see their imaginations come to life while they explored textures and colors. We love learning through play! Happy Friday! 😊

✏️✨ BIG MOMENT ALERT ✨✏️

Atticus tried writing his name for the very first time today!!! πŸ₯ΉπŸ’™

It took a few tries… lots of erasing ✏️➑️🧽 and starting over πŸ”„ for some of those tricky letters… but he never gave up πŸ’ͺπŸ’«

You could feel him concentrating so hardπŸ˜ŒπŸ§ β€” carefully focusing on every curve ➰ and every line πŸ“ in each letter of his name.
And let me tell you… he did AMAZING!!! πŸŒŸπŸ‘

We are beyond proud of you, Atticus πŸ₯°πŸ’™ This is such a big milestone and just the beginning of so many more! πŸš€πŸ“š
Keep shining, little writer βœοΈπŸŒˆπŸ’–

βœοΈπŸ“šLetter Ii ReviewπŸ“šβœοΈ

Today in Pre-K we practiced writing the letter Ii β€” uppercase I and lowercase i! πŸ–οΈβœ¨
Our little learners worked so hard writing lines πŸ“, making careful strokes, and practicing their letters again and again πŸ”„πŸ’ͺ

Then came the fun part… πŸŽ‰ drawing pictures that start with the letter β€œI”! We saw some amazing ideas like ice 🧊, iguanas 🦎, and even igloos πŸ β„οΈ

It’s so special watching them connect letters to sounds and pictures πŸ§ πŸ’‘ You can really see their confidence growing each day! πŸŒ±πŸ’–
We are so proud of our Pre-K superstars πŸŒŸπŸ‘ Keep up the awesome work, friends! 🎈😊

It’s getting warmer outside and guess what… the BUGS are coming out to play!!! πŸœβ˜€οΈπŸž

Today at the library, Ms. Courtney read us AWESOME books about an armadillo and ants πŸΎπŸ“š We learned a brand new wordβ€”β€œburrow”—which means a cozy little tunnel animals dig underground! πŸ•³οΈπŸœ

Then we got up and danced our hearts out to β€œThe Ants Go Marching” πŸŽΆπŸ’ƒπŸ•Ί (we were marching and giggling SO much!) After that, we went to the art table and made our VERY OWN ant burrows!! πŸŽ¨βœ‚οΈ It was so fun getting creative and messy!
