Making Stuff

It was a lovely early morning in Frogland. We checked on Alexander Flubber...he had gotten very flat.

We had some refreshments in the kitchen.

Played our new spinning circles games.

Took extra safety precautions.

And flipped Alexander over, to see what he would do.

Then we headed outside for a weather check. It was chilly, but not "see your breath" cold.

We did some very innovative building.

Then had Morning Meeting.

We read a new book, Monster's Playhouse. It did not get good reviews. Critics felt it was sort of scary and kind of sad - the happy ending did not alter these opinions.

We kept checking in on Alexander, who was doing some amazing things.

After snack, we planted our pineapple top. It's suppose to get roots.

At Choice Time, many friends worked on their characters for our book. They used the reference pictures we found yesterday to help them figure out what to put where.

We also brought the water table into our room. It was, again, a very popular choice. (If you notice that your tiny person is wearing a different shirt on pick up, blame the water table.)

Outside, the Little Frogs have begun to make up even more games. The rules tend to be fairly fluid, but they are excited by the process. Friends are working harder to find ways to mesh their games and interests - their are many phases of negotiating, disagreeing and renegotiating on the playground. It is a wondrous process.
