It has been a very busy month filled with so many great experiences.
With the Winnipeg Jets making it into the playoffs we all had so much fun with; decorating the room, dressing up and even hosting our own hockey game with creating a small rink in our room, using mini hockey sticks and small nets too, of course. We have created a documentation panel up and it is posted near the office if you would like to take a peak.
At the beginning of May we started our “Fit Kids Healthy Kids” program that comes every Wednesday for 8 weeks in the morning for ½ hour and we truly have loved every minute of it. It has been giving us great outdoor game/activity ideas and many different ways we can incorporate active play into our back yard play space. Some of the great ideas so far have been: warm up games/activities getting our heart rates up, parachute games, using pool noodles and balloons in different balancing ways, and moving our bodies in different and creative ways.
At the beginning of the month we had been struggling with what theme to do for the drama center. Then school age children had built a fire truck out of a giant box, they decided it was too small for them and graciously gave it to us. We took it outside and the children painted it and we brought out the fire fighter prop box. The children spent most of the month engaged in play with it and we have been noticed it starting to fizzle out so we have been doing some observations to what we can change the drama center into next to keep them engaged in pretend play.
The children worked very hard on their canvas paintings for Mother’s Day, we truly hope you all enjoyed them. Our favourite part was asking them what they love most about their Mom’s and listening to their responses. It was so heart warming. We are excited to be working on our Father’s Day surprises soon.
With the warmer weather increasing we will continue to spend lots of our time outside; we welcome you to bring a water bottle for your child, please take it home at the end of their week to get cleaned and brought back for the next week. J
