What's quackin' at Puddle Ducks!

Hello!

Well we had another fun-filled day at school! Lots of investigating, being silly, and good times!


Let the Wild Rumpus Start!
Puzzle Mania!



Working those fine motor muscles!


We fed our babies (and Elliot) and put them down for a nap.


And then had fun weighing things!



We also did The Monster Stomp, Father Abraham, and then played games with our bean bags and bowling pins. We had animal crackers, oranges, and string cheese for snack. We watched a short video about owls. Did you know owls can't move their eyes and that is why they can swivel their heads? Whoooooo knew? :)

We finished our day with stories and songs.  

Bye for now!

What We Did at School Yesterday!

Well it was another action-packed, fun-filled day at Puddle Ducks!


Last week this box was our tent and this week it's our town! What will it be next week?



Counting Forest Animals



Squeeeezing Out the Glitter Glue!



We also played in our kitchen, did the Hokey Pokey, created towers out of blocks and then knocked them down with bean bags, made an obstacle course out of blocks and then were frogs, bunnies, horses, and gorillas running the course! We had bagels, cream cheese, and oranges for snack. We played with our forest animals again and finished the day by reading stories!

Whew!
