Jello fun, Cars!!

Our kids in Rose Room enjoy baking and cooking projects! We made Jello this time and let it sit in the refrigerator overnight, and ate the yummy Jello the next day! It was fun for the kids to practice stirring the Jello mixture and water together and practicing not going too fast and spilling the mixture out of the bowl! The kids did a great job and enjoyed the delicious treat :)











































Rose Room has been very interested in transportation lately! The kids can't get enough of Lightning McQueen :) We decided to go along with this theme and have been doing lots of cool transportation activities lately! Since the weather has been so beautiful the last couple of weeks, we have been bringing activities outside! We brought out our basket full of cars, some shaving cream, and a piece of long butcher paper and let the kids have a blast!











































Another fun project that we did with the kids was letting them make their very own paper plate car! The kids first put glue onto the paper plate, added some tissue paper, and then put two black wheels onto their car! The kids really took their time gluing pieces onto their paper plate car and they all turned out so cute!

Tacos, Ocean/Rainbow Fish!

We had a taco party in Rose Room, where the kids got to make their very own tacos! We started off the morning by reading the book "Dragons love tacos." It was such a fun and silly book the kids loved it. Then we warmed up our tortillas, added some beans, tomatoes, and cheese and rolled it all up! The kids loved the tacos some even asked for seconds :)






















We have been talking about and doing lots of fun activities about the ocean and sea animals. We first painted with blue and white paint and blue glitter to make it look like ocean colors. We also sprinkled white sand over the paint to look like the ocean sand. Kids were very excited about their artwork and look at it on the wall every day!













We have been reading and looking through the book "The Rainbow Fish." Such a fun book for the kids to read and see all the beautiful colors, so we decided to make our very own rainbow fish! We made them on old CD's. The kids glued colorful sequins, glitter, and the fish's fins onto it. They turned out so beautifully!

Sun C. atchers, Water Play!

Thank you to S's mom for coming into our classroom and doing an art project with the kids! She helped our kids make sun catchers with glitter, and tissue paper. The kids had a blast with the project, and we could tell by all the glitter that was all over the classroom :)



















Water Play day is always a big hit for our little ones! The kids get to come to school in their bathing suits, we set up a little pool full of water and the kids have so much fun splashing around :) Our water play day was perfectly timed since the weather was so hot that week and everyone got a chance to cool down a little.




















Happy summer!

Love,

Pizza, Faces, Spirit Week!

Rose Room would like to give a big THANK YOU to C and S' mom for coming and helping out in our classroom. We really appreciate you and all that you do to help out in our classroom. Kids love her and it's really been nice having her around :)







One of Rose Room's favorite things to do is cooking projects. It gives the kids a chance to help teachers make some food and the best part about it is they get to eat it when it's all finished. We made English muffin pizzas this time. Kids got to spread tomato sauce around the English muffins and add some cheese on top! The kids were anxiously waiting while it cooked in the oven, and devoured it as soon as it came out. They loved it :)

























We have been talking a lot about feelings/emotions lately. We are doing a lot of role playing at circle time with the kids about our different moods, which will help them be able to express themselves better with their friends. We did an art project based on our own faces. First we focused on our eyes by looking in a mirror and seeing what color our eyes are. Then we glued on our eyes, mouth, nose and hair. The end result was very cute! It was fun to see where each child placed their body parts :)















We had a Spirit week once again which was a lot of fun for all the kids! Coming to school in silly outfits is always fun and different for the kids! Everyone got into the spirit, which was so nice to see :)
