The names of the members in our family

What a beautiful day in Tokyo! We started our day with some more Shaving Cream art! Brandon set up a big yellow piece of paper and some purple shaving cream! We used our little hands to speak the shaving cream all over the paper! On the other tables we had the playdough and family figures and art some of our friends needed to finish up.

We packed away our toys and started our Circle Time! Our Calendar Helpers M and P helped update the calendar.

P: April 16

M: Thursday. It’s sunny!

Our attendance helpers J, E, and S helped hand out the name plates and we sang our name song! Today, we learned a new song about our families! We will be singing these songs for our End of Year Party so please look forward to hearing our beautiful singing!

Before we had Brendan read our story for the day, we took a quick brain break! Today Yoga Poses were the “Wheel”, “X Marks the Spot” and “Jelly Sandwich”! After we moved our bodies a little, we sat down quietly and listened to Brandon’s story. Today, he read, “The Huffalots”  by Eve Coy. It was a cute book about a brother and a sister who started the day being grumpy “Huffalots”. As the day went on and the two played together they slowly became, “Love-a-lots”. It was a great book about siblings and sharing, exactly what we have been talking about all this week! 

Brandon: The Huffalots are grumpy in the morning when they wake up. Where are they right now?

P: Bedroom.

J: I have a bed in the bedroom.

M: Z and me have new beds.

S: *Points at the toys* They are playing.

P: Dinosaur (toy).

Brandon: What is grumpy?

R: Angry.

Brandon: Where are they now?

S: Outside.

R: Park!

I: (Playing on the) Swings.

Brandon: The Huffalots turn into Huffalittles then this makes them Lovealots.

M G: Heart!

Petals: Hug!

J: The end!

Today, we talked a little about the difference between a friend and a sibling. Siblings live with us and are a part of our family. We used the boy and girl puzzle and talked about how boys are brothers and girls are sisters.

Thank you all for another fabulous day! Have a wonderful evening and we will see you again tomorrow!

Love,
Petals
