This morning, there was all manner of things to be fixed.
Buses to be gassed up and screws to be taken out. Little Frogs are very fond of all manner of tools.
Then we got out some baking tools to make some banana bread.
This involved a great deal of mashing and smashing.
When we were done it was time for Morning Meeting. We had another lovely Moment of Silence, and the Little Frogs take pride in being able to still their bodies.
Then, because friends have started to use the big blocks more in our newly expanded block area, we had a safety meeting. Hoppity joined us as we tried to figure out what made some building steady and some wobbly. Hoppity "volunteered" to test our structures and ended up falling down several times.
Then we headed outside for our first really chilly playground day (if you haven't already done so, please make sure that your child has a hat and mittens with their names in them, and weather-appropriate changes of clothing).
The Frogs played a game of Pile Up on the slides and could not stop laughing.
Then we went for a walkabout in the cemetery and discovered all kinds of changes in the trees. Tiny pine cones had opened up and there were leaves to make leaf angels in.
When we got back inside, we made a Rocket Ship Fort with our tables and a sheet. Laughter continued.
Little Frog friendships are developing nicely, as Frog's are figuring out what it means to be "friendish," (a phrase we use whenever someone demonstrates that they are thinking about someone else's feelings).
After everyone had finished their lunches and after lunch jobs, Princess Froggy came out for a visit. This is always a happiness.
