Finally, a new post!

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!!!  I know this is a terrible excuse, but I just completely forgot to post the second Feb. and first March posts!  So, here's a quick update of a whole month's worth of fun:  (These are not at all in order :).


We'll begin with our Treehouse Museum Field trip!  We were so glad to see our friends that were able to come.  We had lots of fun watching as some of our preschool friends got to put on a play with puppets, and of course playing all around the museum.  Play is a child's work!! Through play, your preschooler is learning to make plans, develop strategies, and problem solvign skills.  I'm sorry I couldn't get pictures of everyone in our class.  They were everywhere!!

Also,  Happy Birthday, Deakin!!  We were all excited for Deakin's birthday leader day.  Thanks for the yummy basketball cupcakes, Mom!
Spring
We were also able to go on a "spring hunt" looking for signs of spring.  Take a look at what we found!
We found all sorts of bugs as we dug up Miss Monique's garden!  We saw earthworms, centipedes, flies, potato bugs, and even centipede eggs!  They were all still a little sleepy, but they woke up when we started searching.  We talked all about how everything is blooming and growing.  We found buds, blossoms, weeds, and even some birds flying home from their winter homes.
 

Winter Spring




Valentine's Day!
Here are some pictures I forgot to post from our V-day party:


Transportation Day:
We learned all about things that GO!  Thanks to one of our preschool dads, each child was able to make their very own self-moving vehicle :).  We finished off the day by having a race on the driveway.  Big thanks to Camille's dad!!


Ogden Nature Center Field trip:

We had so much fun at the Nature Center!  We learned new songs, saw all sorts of animals, had a yummy snack, and made a fun craft.  Some of the animals we saw were:  a snake, a tarantula, all sorts of birds of prey, even a deer!
