A Day for Figuring Things Out


There were a few new surprises to be found around the room this morning. Our bird's nest had some eggs in it and friends told stories about what might happen.



Another item left the Frogs guessing: A clock? A timer? It moved when you put things on top of it, so a number of friends began to experiment with different objects - doing their own scientific investigation.




There were lots of phone calls in the room today - many friends were on the phone with parents, talking about their day.




The Little Frogs continued their study of faces, as we continue to consider different look for our pillow person. We are interested in thinking about what makes a face look happy, sad, scared, mad and afraid.








Outside, friends had many discussions, debates and arguments about how to play together. For some reason, it was not a day for compromise, so friends needed an extra large amount of help in settling disputes and voicing their feelings and opinions.


At the same time, Little Frogs are beginning to play cooperatively in larger groups - so the demands for working out ways to play together are becoming more complicated.



Back inside, Danielle read, The Gingerbread Boy, and some friends were surprised when he got eaten by the fox at the end. The story got mostly thumbs up and a few "sorta liked it's" (thumbs sideways).
