Fairytales: Monday




Today was a great day back from break. The kids really enjoyed getting back into routine and playing with their friends.



At morning message we discussed feelings and that you can look at peoples' faces and bodies to help you decide how they feel.

We looked at a picture of a sad and happy friend. We then discussed how we could act with each friend.



                                                    Enjoying time with friends outside!











We had show and tell and shared  one of our favorite moments from Christmas break with one another before snack.
Our calendar helper identifying the month of January and helping us count to January 4th.
                                      Our meteorologist predicted a cloudy and cold day.
At circle time we discussed what a fairytale is and different events that might occur in a fairy tale. We discussed that fairy tales are make believe, usually begin with "Once Upon a Time" and end with "And they lived Happily Ever After." Ask your child about other events that might take place during a fairy tale. We talked about several: )

We each took a turn walking down a path into a magical kingdom at center. Each friend identified something they learned from circle about fairytales. Ask your child what they talked about while walking/crawling though our magical path.










                 We played a castle game while identifying colors and shapes at centers.


Working together to build castles with different shapes. Tomorrow we will creating individual shape castles!







We worked hard drawing castles, princesses/princes, forests, etc... to decorate our fairy tale pathway!

At Jesus time we talked about how Jesus grew up and helped many families. We talked about how Jesus raised Jairus' daughter from the dead while playing an "Hooray" and 'Oh no" game!
