Happy Tuesday Middle Toddler Families!
Brenna, Kayla, Marlo, Lauren, Kyler, Theo, Ben and Nathan
make up our busy toddler class today! We
were all here in time for breakfast this morning and sat right down to enjoy a
big breakfast of yogurt and granola.
What a deliciously sticky way to start our day! After cleaning up we made our way back to the
Early Toddler Classroom with Ms. Jamie and Ms. Melissa. We enjoyed visiting our old classroom and
were happy to revisit all of our old toys and discover new ones as well.
When it was time for diapers and curriculum, we moved into
our own classroom. Ms. Rebecca was out
for a little while this morning but we were happy to have Ms. Ashley Rose for
the morning. We started out with a
little free play around the classroom while we received fresh diapers and
waited for music time. Marlo climbed up
to the top of the stairs and hollered to get everyone’s attention. We are very aware of our accomplishments and
want everyone else to be as well! Ben,
Brenna and Kyler sat on the car rug and worked diligently at putting together
train track pieces. Kyler made two big
hills and watched as his train went down fast.
Brenna made a track with four train tracks and Ben connected six pieces
together. Theo sat in the book area and
read a book quietly to himself as he lay back against the cozy mats. Lauren gathered all her babies and placed
blankets over them while Nathan and Kayla put on hats and then smiled at
themselves as they looked in the mirror.
We were all so happy to see Teacher Craig come into the room
for music time! We quickly gathered on
the rug in a circle (of sorts anyway!) and started patting our legs. Today’s favorites included “Ladybug”, “Dance
with Me” and “Two Little Blackbirds”. We
also loved playing along with our instruments!
After music time and a quick milk and water break, we
gathered at the sensory table. We are
continuing our beach theme all week.
Today we found sea animals in the sensory table as we explored and
splashed in the water. We sang slippery
fish as we played in the water. We found
a fish, an octopus, a turtle, a dolphin, a squid and several boats! Lauren, Brenna and Kayla spent their time
splishing and splashing while Nathan and Ben grabbed animals and helped them
swim across the water. Theo grabbed a boat and made a fog horn sound as he
pushed it across the top of the water.
When we asked Kyler if he wanted to come over to play in the water he
said, “I’m riding bikes!” as he made his way around the classroom on one of the
wooden riding toys.
Soon it was time clean up and head in for lunch. We enjoyed bean ad cheese burritos today with
corn and applesauce. Yum! With full tummies, we headed back into the
classroom to settle down for some much needed sleep.
This afternoon we will enjoy trail mix for snack and then we
hope to get outside to enjoy some fresh air.
We will continue learning about the ocean as we take our new sea animals
outside to play.
Have a wonderful afternoon and evening!
Melissa and Rebecca
