Daily Update - Kids in the Kitchen & Elfie 2 Names

We made Chocolate dipped pretzels today! Yummy :o) We also had another Special Reader! Thank You to E's Grandma for joining us today for a book and a visit to our playground! 
Our very own Elf on the Shelf...Santa fulfilled a wish from one of our children and sent us our very own Elf on the Shelf. Ours is quite the daredevil, he was ziplining across our table this morning! After throwing around a few names we did a quick vote and our Elf is named Elfie 2 Names. He is keeping an eye on our CLC Children and reporting to Santa nightly.

Daily Update - Kids in the Kitchen

We had a busy day today! This morning we made Puppy Chow. The children helped stir the melted chocolate and peanut butter together, then we added some rice chex and they coated the cereal with the chocolate/pb mixture. Finally we scooped it in a baggie full of powdered sugar and shook it. They did a great job! We had a special reader and visitor for lunch thank you to our star of the weeks Grandma for joining us today! Miss Catrina helped us make our own afternoon snack. They made purple cow smoothies and in the words of one of our kiddos "Oh my that's yummy!"

Daily Update - Kids in the Kitchen

Today we helped Miss Catrina out. We made little pizzas for afternoon snack, and cornbread muffins for lunch. They did a great job measuring, pouring, stirring, spreading, sprinkling, and even cleaning up!

Daily Update - Kids in the Kitchen

This week our Theme is Kids in the Kitchen. Today we played with our food. We did an awesome sensory activity, we gave each child a piece of finger paint paper, a pile of cooked spaghetti, and some finger paint. They loved it!! Even our child that does not like to paint asked for some paint today!

Daily Update - Parent Involvement Day

It was National Parent Involvement Day! Thank You so much to the moms and dad that joined us today! We enjoyed having you join us for circle time and showing you how to make and play with play dough. I put two of our favorite play dough recipes and a sheet that tells what a child learns from playing with play dough in the cubbies. It is a wonderful learning tool and really helps build those fine motor muscles! We also shared our Star of the Week Board today, and her special bear.
