Earth Day exploding milk experiment: green and blue to represent our planet But when we add only one drop of purple (represents pollution) we see how quickly it takes over. It’s hard to see the green and blue now! Even at this age they know that pollution and garbage are not good for our planet.

Happy Earth Day! Earth Day art activities: tie dye paper towel earth’s, balloon stamp painting, Mack tack and tissue paper group project: earth

Happy Easter! Decorating cookies and an Easter egg hunt for our little friends

Today we planted some seeds: beans and flowers (ranunculus). We talked about how plants and seed grow in the spring, and what is needed for them to grow. We took turns planting and had a great discussion about other plants that we know about.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! We had a little leprechaun visit and hide gold coins for us to find!

Cheeseburger sliders with spinach and pickles, carrot sticks and pears. Yum!

A fun science experiment: coloured vinegar, medicine droppers and a bin full of baking soda. Experimenting with colour mixing, amounts of squirts, angle of squirts. Learning about cause and effect and practicing those fine motor skills (pincer grasp-pre writing skills). Not to mention it’s so much fun!

Pink shirt day! But don’t just wear the shirt, have the conversations too. Kindness matters. Speak out, refuse to go along with it, get help from your friends, teachers or adults.

So much fun in the snow

Today we baked crinkle cookies for a Valentine’s Day snack
