Shadow dancing is so much fun.

Hi! We have been a busy crew this week thus far. I will tell you one thing (there are quite a few) I love about Funshine is that there are plenty of activities to fill the whole day. When I planned without Funshine(cannot imagine at all) there would be a lot of gaps in the day that may not have an activity and that was a lot to plan. Funshine fixed that problem right up.
This week we are still learning where we live. I have  mentioned that some places people live is cloudy all the time. One of the children said "no sunny not ok." Well yes, it's not ok. When we go outside we never pay attention to what we see and  Amelia found her shadow. She stopped and said "look look" She was followering it around and moving to see if her shadow would do the same thing. I explained where we live is sunny now, but it may be cloudy the next day and the shadow will go away.













Sometimes when we think of homes, we only think of houses that people live in, but sometimes
forget the animals live in homes too, just different than ours.
 Animal homes was the creative Development activity for this week. The first day we colored our book and added stickers. We then placed the animal pictures on the homes where they live. ie... fish in a fish bowl, dog in a doghouse. The last step was putting it together like a book.
Each week I observe the children sitting longer and getting more involved in their work. Makes me happy that the seeds are growing into flowers.
On Thursday we will start our new theme Busy Mice. Be on the look out for a post with new and fun activities.
