Rainbows and st. Patrick's day.

I was excited when I opened the Funshine express box and the second theme was changing seasons and doing games and a spring book was in there. That means Spring is right around the corner. Woohoo!
Yesterday we made a beautiful rainbow out of paper. The older children loved cutting the strips of paper.



We have been enjoying learning about St. Patrick's day and we were all shades of green today!



We enjoyed reading these books today and they were on the book list for funshine express curriculum. 

St. Patrick's day is a tricky holiday to explain, but they sure did know about the lepracauhn. We learned  what a clover is and what a four leaf clover means good luck. 

Today the creative arts activity was a St. Patrick's day charm bracelet. 



The kids had a lot fun mixing colors in a bag. We learned that blue and yellow make green. What the cool thing was, was squishing it and watching the colors mix. Lena practiced writing her name in the paint too. 

Funshine had such great ideas. Come back later in the week to see more.
