Our annual field trip to the pumpkin patch



So thankful for the wonderful families that continue to participate in this fun tradition!

What a nice surprise!

A local family blessed us by passing on their handmade wooden block set, and our group has enjoyed exploring the different shapes and building a variety of structures.

"The Book with No Pictures": Our New Favorite!

We just got our copy of "The Book with No Pictures" today, and I can see that it will certainly be one of our favorites. I had such fun reading it aloud to the kids - hilarity ensued! We read it several times today, with huge uproarious bursts of laughter each time. Highly recommended!

The Book with No Pictures by B.J. Novak

On the Amazon page, there is video of the author B.J. Novak reading the book... I watched that video and was convinced that we needed this innovative book for our collection.

'Mystery Bags' Sensory Game

During our 'Five Senses' themed-week, we played a guessing game. The children were presented with a group of sealed paper bags.

We felt and shook the bags, trying to guess what item was inside of each one. Our predictions were recorded. Then we opened the bags:

Here are the results:
