Summer Safari Tot School

Thanks for joining us on our Summer Safari!  We encountered songs about Lions, and Gorillas, and Bears, OH MY!  We laughed and explored all morning!  Some of our favorites included eating broccoli and graham crackers (YES! Broccoli!).  We spent a lot of time practicing climbing on the climbing structure.  It'll take more practice before they can do it on their own, but they are getting stronger each day!

 We played with play dough A LOT today.  We kept it out the whole time.  I usually put it away when it is left for something else, that didn't happen today.  We played with the little splash pool and a little bit with the sandbox and playhouse/toy kitchens.  It was such a chill class today. Everyone was happy exploring in our little part of the world.

Be sure to check out the Facebook posts of two of the songs we sang today.  Sing them at home, the kids love them! https://www.facebook.com/InitiateLearning/ 

Nursery Rhymes in Tot School

We had such a fantastic first day of tot school's summer session!  We sang nursery rhymes all day (I may dream in nursery rhymes because we sang them over and over). 

 We had a lot of fun learning the Humpty Dumpty nursery rhyme.  Here's how I do it with toddlers:

We played play dough and blocks.  We learned to sort the dog pictures from biggest to smallest and we played a lot with the water table, sand table, and toy kitchens.

 The kids loved the bunny and learned to pick clover from the grass to feed to him.  We also worked on climbing and played in the playhouse.  We had a fantastic time singing and playing together!
