Week of March 17

We continued working on our colors this week. Our little ones are getting better at identifying colors and saying the names. We sang The Color Song again. We will continue to sing this song all month.

For our fine motor activity, we colored pictures. We can see big improvements in coloring skills compared to the beginning of the year. We encouraged them to try lots of colors in their pictures. We repeated the names of the colors as we worked on our pictures.

To practice identifying colors, we played a color matching game. We matched colored ice cream scoops to the matching ice cream cones. Everyone had fun and several even tried to nibble the pretend ice cream.

Next week is spring break. We hope you enjoy your week off!

Week of March 10

We are working on colors this month in Toddler Time.
Our song this week was Rainbow Song. We also had fun with color songs and chants. We will practice these all month.





For our sensory activity, we played with colored soap foam. The foam was made with 2 tablespoons of Dawn dish soap, a half cup of water, and some washable liquid watercolor paint. It was whipped with a hand mixer to make a thick foam. It was lots of fun!

We made rainbows this week. We added cotton balls to the clouds to make them nice and fluffy.

Tuesday was such a beautiful day, we just had to get outside. The little ones ran around, tossed leaves in the air, and listened to lots of singing birds in the trees.

Week of March 3

Well, snow days hit us again! Our Wednesday class was still able to meet. We decided to pull out some of our old favorite activities for the day.

Our song was ABCs. Almost all our little ones are helping to sing along now. Everyone claps and cheers when we finish.

Our book was Tickle Tickle. This book is a favorite of all our little ones. They consistently bring it for us to read. She especially like that we sneak in and tickle them at the end of the book.

We worked on fine motor skills with our heart shaped pasta stacking. We also had fun stringing pool noodle beads on jump rope. It is so fun to see how they have improved since the beginning of the year.

It is always a favorite when we go next door to play with bigger toys. Our little ones are really engaging more and more with each other. Their personalities are so much fun!
