We had such a fun and busy October! The Littles were in charge of making snack for everyone at the Centre earlier in the month. We decided to make Apple Crisp and each child had the opportunity to help by using a plastic butter nap and chop the apples slices into chunks. They all enjoyed this a did a great job helping out! After seeing them use the knives to well, we decided to further this experience and allow them to cut play dough with them too!
Skye (from Paw Patrol) came to visit. She read some stories to
the children, she taught them some dances with movements to follow along, and
then afterwards we had a disco light dance party! Most of the children were
really into it, while some others were content with just standing back and
watching.
We ended the last week of October with lots of spooky activities and dress up days. We had a huge Halloween party with all of preschool. We had stations set up around that included:
- Pin the spider on the web
- Mystery Box (two different boxes/
stations)
- Witch hat toss
- Sticker table
- Pumpkin spiced play dough table
- Memory game
Afterwards, we began our costume parade
around the centre starting with the infants and ending with the school agers! Shortly
after the parade, the children had lunch and then free play/ marble painting!
We had a nap and got right back into the Halloween festivities! We had so many
wonderful and healthy treats that were brought in for afternoon snack that was
divided up and devoured by the children! J
