This week we are learning with monsters!
Science - Growing Celery - Wow! Check out our celery after a week!
Monster Journals - Ms. Sara glued googly eyes in the kiddos journals, they got to create any type of monster they wanted.
Don't Eat Pete! - Back
to monsters, we played this silly, tasty game. A kiddo is "it" and
leaves the room. The rest of us decide which monster is going to be
"Pete". The kiddos comes back and begins munching a snack from each
monster, when the kiddo reaches for the monster we decided was "Pete" we
all yell: "DON'T EAT PETE!". It's a little crazy, but fun. The kiddos chose whether they wanted to munch M&M's or goldfish, or a bit of both.
Monster Shirt - This kiddo arrived at preschool with the perfect shirt on! She didn't even know it was monster week!
Kleenex Box Monster Feet - These are the best! I save boxes all year long, just so we can do this project! I run a couple of strips of hot glue on the bottom of the boxes, so they aren't quite so slippery on the carpet. The claws are just craft foam, I've also used sponges before.
The boxes usually need some duct tape support before the day is done, but they are super fun and the kiddos love them.
These kiddos didn't want to take off their monster feet at snack time, ha!
Crazy Weather - On Monday we enjoyed such warm weather (see monster shirt above). Wednesday we had a surprise! We played in the snow for a chunk of time and set aside our monster activities.
Snow Ice Cream! Super easy to make: Clean snow, milk, sugar, and vanilla!
"This is the best ice cream I've ever tasted!"
"Put ice cream in your hot chocolate!"
"It tastes cold and hot!"
We also enjoyed hot cocoa...
The Big Green Monster - Toddlers
The preschoolers created their own monsters...
Snow Bin - For the toddlers, I brought snow in for them to play with.
Cozy Corner - Secret Fort - The kiddos figured out this arrangement...
Tape Road - One of the kiddos created this fabulous road.
Monster Slime! - We made the traditional Borax and glue slime today.
