February was a fantastic month in Preschool. The Younger Floor children are interested in dinosaurs. We have been talking about the names of each dinosaur and facts about each one. The love to pretend they are dinosaurs and chase each other around. Check out the window on Younger Floor-the children made their very own dinosaur eggs to spruce up the space.
The Younger Floor children love sensory play, so we introduced a twist on play dough and made "Snow Dough" with cornstarch and conditioner. It was messy, but the children had a blast!
We were lucky to have some beautiful weather in February. We spent lots of time outside in our play space and on walks in our community.
The Older Floor children have started to do a circle time each day. They take time to sit and talk about whatever the children are interested in. They have also been doing "Letter of the Day" and "Show & Tell" during circle time.
The Older Floor children have also been interested in dramatic play. The staff have set up a baby area with baby clothes, food, high chairs, etc. The children love taking care of their baby dolls. They have also been putting on concerts for each other (singing and dancing). Can you guess what the song of choice is for this group?? It's "Oh Canada!"
Along with dancing, the children are also into exercising and moving their bodies. You will often find them in the block area making their very own "gym" or "play structure" or playing hopscotch. We love to see the children interested in being physically active, and we are excited to see what the month of March will bring!
