A Spook-tacular October

October was filled with a lot of Halloween crafts, a falled themed sensory table, and our very first time to the playground!! This month we made bats, ghosts, and witches hats. We used a lot of black paint and used our glue sticks for the first time.  Our sensory table had cornflakes in it at the beginning of the month with fun fall things to play with and feel.  We had pinecones, leaves, and pretend pumkins and gords to play and dump. Some of the toddlers joined us on a field trip with the older kids to the apple orchard where we were able to see how they make apple cider and walk through the trees where the apples grow.  This month we also got to play on the playground for the first time.  This was big news in our room!!  Everyone had a blast and Mrs. Jill and I were glad we went at the end of the day because no one wanted to leave the playground to go back inside.  We ended our month with a Boo-riffic Halloween party.  Moms, Dads, Grandmas, and Aunts came to join us as we played ghost bowling and dug for candy.  They also helped us make a ghost out of our foot print to take home. Overall October was a Spook-tacular month!!

A View of Our First Few Weeks of School

Our first few weeks of school have gone very smoothly in Toddler Time.  We have had fun playing with our sensory activities and making crafts with paint.  We have popped bubbles with our fingers, played with sticky tape, and dumped and scooped dry oatmeal.  We have also made a painting by stamping apples and finger painted a sun.  All of the toddlers have enjoyed painting, but a few weren't sure about putting it on their fingers!  Everyone one has also enjoyed going on wagon rides.  They will stand at the door and say, "choo-choo."  We have a had a great few weeks and have more fun activities to come.
