Preschool Friends

 


Ryan, Hannah, Krista, Lindsey, Joey

Hannah has preschool every Tuesday morning. The mothers of the kids participating teach the lessons, and it was my turn yesterday. Because it was Veterans Day, we talked about our country. We had a brief talk about why it’s great to live in a free country and did this fun flag craft. This group is still pretty young, so there isn’t a strong structure to the class, but we played freeze dance to some patriotic songs, played outside some of those classic kids games like Duck duck goose and London Bridges, marched around with the flags they made and had plenty of play time. We talked about the different colors on the flag as they ate their snack of jello (red), banana (white), and sprinkles (blue). This is a fun group and I always enjoy teaching them!

    Such cute ideas! I don’t know if Holden would like pre-school or not because he recently started hating nursery (he used to love it) and it takes him a while to get him to stop clinging and start playing with toys. It makes me think that he would do the same thing in a pre-school environment. Liv loved her preschool and I loved all of the fun things she got to do.

    Hannah sure is a cutie! Your flag looks beautiful Hannah, you did a lovely job! And Mathes LOVES his preschool, it’s been so fun to see him have so much fun there.

    So FUN! I tried that once but it didn’t stick I think it is because 3 of the 5 moms were pregnant.

    Krista talked forever about all the things she had done there that day 🙂 She had a lot of fun. She also told me that she ate something red but couldn’t remember what it was called. This solves the mystery! I love that picture! Can you email it to me?

    Looks like lots of fun!!! You are good at finding age appropriate things for the kids to do. Wish we could be in Hannah’s class too!!!
