Can I just tell you how much I love your kids! They are so cute. :) Today we read a book about the Letter K and it was talking about kittens. One little girl said to me, "Ms. Julie, my mom won't let me have a cow, a horse or even a cat because she says they poop all over the place!" She said this very sadly and seemed upset that she couldn't have a pet but I couldn't help but laugh. I tried to keep a straight face but just couldn't hold it in. We have been having lots of fun. I am sorry I haven't kept things updated more often. With a newborn as well as a bunch of judging for piano competitions I have been so busy and this was put on the back burner. I will try to do a better job.

Some of our recent projects:

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the king's horses, and all the king's men
Couldn't put Humpty together again.

With this art project we talked about shapes earlier in the day and then they got to make their own Oval shaped Humpty Dumpty. I just gave them the supplies and they got to be creative.

We made YUMMY chocolate ice cream on letter I day. Can I just tell you how much I love my Vita Mixer? A Whole Bunch! It even makes play doh!!!

J is for jellyfishes. The kids loved making these and then pretending to sting each other with their tentacles.

We talked about the Pilgrims coming to America and the kids were so fascinated to hear all about them coming over the ocean on the Mayflower and trying to build a new place with freedom. They also loved hearing about the big feast they had with the Indians and the First Official Thanksgiving. I am looking forward to Thursday. We will be having our annual Preschool Thanksgiving Feast. After talking about it they got to make themselves into a pilgrim.
