Big mural painting today !

And that's a wrap... have a safe weekend!

Lots of fun today... art easel with painting... Yummy cucumbers, tomatoes, blueberries, apples, fish, crackers, we played with the chalk board, white board, more balloon fun, lots of magna tiles! (Shapes, colors, balance, building, patterning, matching, shapes,sizes...)

Introducing my new day care signs... I'm very pleased with how they turned out!

So... What did we do today? Or perhaps the question should be: What didn't we do today? We played with our new bean bag toss, our light up magnifying glass, glittery pumpkin sorting and counting, yummy food, balloons, toy food, dentist kit, garden sensory bin... And so much more!

These books are plastic! So they can be sanitized. They each come with 6 characters! And a mesh bag to store them in Great for covid because they can be cleaned between children.

Full house... daycare is back in full swing and better than ever!!

... and we are open... and having so much fun...

Apple picking craft/counting game!

Montessori inspired. I made this using dollarama wooden rings. Dollarama mug rack. Learning colors... patterns... sizes... counting...

Surprise! Our front yard is now fully fenced and decorated!

Preparing a honey and bee unit for the kids... To teach them about pollen, flowers, bees, honey...

Turned this dollarama table into a chalk board table... black board wall sticker from dollarama too.

Well... that was fun... Almost everything from dollarama. These boxes can help toddlers and preschoolers learn: colors, shapes, textures, vocabulary, small/big, hard/soft, sink/float, dark/light....

New busy book for preschool age...

I found pieces of wood ppl were giving away for free. I used road tape on top. Then I put modge podge on it.... Lastly I bought waterproof dollar store toy cars. And dollar store car stickers Outdoor day care racing track!

I've been working hard to make separate centers for the day care kids To promote social distance We have an art area, eating area, potty area, diapering area, sensory area, hand washing and drying area, animal and house play area. . .

No more sharing craft supplies :( Each kid will get their own craft box: glue, scissors, markers, crayons, colored pencils, rules. Sharpener...
