Daily Update Ten Apples Up On Top!

We had an apple taste test and this year Yellow was the winner!  We read Ten Apples Up On Top and then tried to stack apples on our heads.  Most of the children were able to balance one apple on their head.  We drew a picture and used the stamp pads to make apples up on top, some had just a few and some had too many to count!  Thank You for all the apples!  Tomorrow we will be making and eating homemade applesauce!

REMINDER: Picture Days are Sept. 24 & 25 this is also a fundraiser!  Miss Catrina does such an awesome job, so order a lot :o)

Daily Update - Eat Smart Celebration!

Congratulations CLC!!! Today we were presented an award by the Dept. of Health & Senior Services- for recognition of being a Missouri Eat Smart Child Care Center! This is a great achievement as there are only 4 other organizations in the state of Missouri with this title and we received the highest "advanced" level! Awesome Job to Miss Catrina for making this happen! And Yay CLC!!
Our eat smart celebration took up a lot of our morning, we did make one of those art projects that are not process at all, but just super cute. We made apple trees with our arms and hands.

Daily Update - Apples

This week is Apple Week!  We have started our letter of the week, and it is A week.  This week the theme did go with our letter, but this won’t always happen.  Next week our theme is Fall and our letter is B.  Yesterday the children looked at different types of apples for inspiration and then painted.  Today we cut open some apples and investigated what was inside.  We then painted with our cut apples.   We have also been talking about the color red.  During circle time all of the children went and found something red and brought it to circle.  We talked about what they found, we sorted them, and then we played a memory game with them.

REMINDER: We could still use some apples!!  Especially Green and Yellow!  Thank You!
