Today the kids arrived dressed in green and we started our free play with the Lauri Stacking Pegs. The kids enjoyed making long strands of pegs and sorting the colors. We read a few stories next: "Little Green" by Keith Baker, "Two is for Twins" by Wendy Cheyette Lewison, and "Little Blue and Little Yellow" (a color mixing story) by Leo Lionni. We rolled a “thankful cube” and said what we were thankful for in the pictures. Then we enjoyed a song and dance time with Lauri Berkner Band’s songs “I’m Gonna Catch You” and “We are the Dinosaurs”. We had a yummy green snack: green punch, grapes, celery, granny smith apples, and bell peppers. We practiced counting by handing out snack servings of two, with plenty of refills. After snacks we settled down to work on a letter T activity sheet and “T is for Thanks” color page. We practiced our verse, “Always give thanks to God for everything” Ephesians 5:20. We wrapped things up by playing outside. Janet taught the kids some yoga moves then they kicked a giant green ball back and forth for a bit then just ran around and had fun like kids do. It was great!
