Looking Forward-Spring Time

The children loved following the leprechaun's footprints and finding their own pots of gold.  They also made leprechaun hats and some of them were still drying and we'll send them home on Monday.  For snack we made leprechaun pudding, better known as pistachio pudding, and pigs in a blanket. 

Now, we're moving into spring time with new songs and activities to learn all about spring and what it entails.  We'll start off with dirt and seeds and move into bugs and insects.  We'll put dirt, shovels, pails, cars, and farming tractors into our sensory table so the children will be able to play in dirt.  Currently, we have marigold seeds, onion sets, crocuses, and tulips growing in our classroom.  This week we'll add tomatoes and during our reading this week of spring books we'll discuss with the children what else they would like to plant.
