This morning, the Little Frogs came in interested in everything. There were stencils to be made, books to be shared, things to be taken apart, puzzles to figure out, plenty of imagining to dress for, hallways to measure and tales to tell. I have to say, it was a kind of magical morning.
After out Moment of Silence. we read a story and then got ready for Flip Flop day. In the Turtle room, there was real clay out to experiment with, as well as beads, blocks and dramatic play. In our room, the favorite activity was face painting - making ourselves into monsters (or cats or a variety of other abstract things). Some friends asked to have their faces painted, but many elected to do their own, with a little coaching and a table mirror.
We also enjoyed building with the blocks, reading new books and playing in the Flubber table.
Then we had some time outside with our new identities.
