Even though we have only been together for two sessions, it seems like we have known each other for much longer. It always amazes me how quickly the kiddos become comfortable with the space, the materials, and each other. This week we mixed colors of paint on aluminum foil with our hands and brushes, marked on mirrors with our Stabilo pencils, built animal homes with our scrap wood pieces, and used shells, glass gems, and guitar pics to make lots of imprints and sculptures in the play dough. Our Boots for Buses birdhouse boots were given a snazzy layer of silver paint and silver glitter, next comes the roof. Don’t forget the big black boxes that helped us prop ourselves higher to the windows so we could see the all of the cars, buses, and motorcycles zipping by. We finished off with a fabulous groove of “Shake Your Sillies Out” using our shaky eggs. We have some excellent shakers on our hands!
I look forward to our combined class next week! Have a great weekend!
