Mouse paint and mixing colors.

We This week we are focusing on pumpkins and mixing colors after reading " Mouse paint."  This a book that is on Funshineexpress book list to extend the theme.

 We mixed our own paints to create colors. We look and observed at the colors mixing and changing.

I was out of primary color paint so we mixed fluorescent, but it had the same effect. 
The kiddos loved painting. 

 In the Buttercups curriculum , All about me cards were for the social/ emotional section. 
This week we are learning about our ears and what we use our ears for. 
I pointed out that the firefighter is talking. I asked what the child is doing. One of the older toddlers said " using his ears " 
Since it is fire safety month, we discussed it was very important to listen to firefighters especially in a fire. 
We practiced stopping ,dropping and rolling.
There are so many extensions you can pull from Funshines curriculum. I consider  it peices to a big puzzle!
