Music Monday: Rainbow Xylophone

As we celebrate the week of the young child every year, Covid-19 could not stop us from appreciating our young children this year!

For Music Monday, we made rainbow water xylophones with glass cups, water, food coloring, and a stick to make music! This was a simple and fun way to make an instrument. It was so much fun to sing our favorite nursery rhymes as we were playing on the rainbow water xylophone!

Tasty Tuesday: Pizza Party!

For tasty Tuesday, we read a book called Curious George and the Pizza Party together and made pizza on our own! Some friends had english muffins and others had pieces of bread for pizza dough. We each made yummy pizza by applying pizza sauce and cheese on bread/english muffins. Some of us cooked our pizza in a microwave while others cooked it in an oven. We enjoyed our homemade pizza together!

Happy Earth Day!

As the Wednesday 4/22 was national Earth Day, we discussed how we can help save the Earth. We first read The Earth Book by Todd Parr, then talked about some of the things we can do at home.

Artsy Thursday: Memory Game & Bracelet Making

For artsy Thursday, we played memory games with art materials. Our 3A friends were getting much better playing this game! At first we took one item, then took two items, and even when we took three items, our friends were able to remember and find the missing items! The memory game enhances our children’s short-term memory. In the afternoon, we made bracelets with toilet paper rolls. We painted, drew, put stickers on the bracelets to make it special!

Family Friday: Who is in your family?

As we celebrate family Friday, we read our all time favorite The Family Book by Todd Parr. From the book, we learned that there were so many different kinds of families in the world. Then we talked about who was in our family. Once each friend shared their family members, Clare created a family chart. We also shared one reason why each of our family member is so special! We love our families!
