This week the caterpillars worked hard on

creating special presents for our special Moms. We especially enjoyed wrapping the presents and cooperatively creating a Mother's Day poster! On Monday, we released our butterflies in the park's butterfly garden. It was exciting to see them flutter away! We were also excited to watch the construction equipment bring dirt for the park’s new playground! Hopefully we will be able to play on it soon!

This week we talked about fairy tales. The children had fun making hand print lambs puppets and frogs. On our fairy tale party day, the children got to dress up and

make crowns. We also had a chance to try on Ms. Michelle's wedding dress. Rice was in the sensory table and Ms. Betty came for music class!

Have a great weekend.

This week and next we will be working on our gross motor skills in the Ladybug Room!!
