Camping week was a blast and the kids absolutely LOVED the tent. We ate in the tent, we read in the tent, played games in the tent, etc. Here are some pics of our week

The kids were so proud of what they made you for Mother's day! All day they kept asking when they could give it to you! I hope you had a wonderful mothers day and loved there gifts :)

May 11-14 CAMPING WEEK

I hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day!!!
Sorry I didn't post this sooner. I usually due this on Sundays but my internet was down yesterday.
Anyway this week our theme is camping! We'll do lots of fun camping crafts, activites, and games. We will be building an actual tent downstairs so we will be doing most our activities in there such as reading, telling camping stories, and singing camping songs around a fake camp fire we will make. (good time to talk about fire safety too) This will be a fun theme especially with a real tent to play in.

Some activities will include
Going on a walk and have the kids look for things that they might see while camping (rocks, leaves, stream, etc.) We will collect some items and make a collage with what they find.

Make a fake campfire using painted paper towel rolls as logs and tissue paper as fire.

A QUICK NOTE

It's about time we had some nice weather!! Well now that summer is FINALLY around the corner I just wanted to ask if you could please bring the kids sun hats and sunscreen when they come to play so we can take advantage of these sunny days and not worry about the sun. If you'd like to leave a bottle of sunscreen or hats here that is fine with me or just bring on a daily basis that is fine as well. On really hot days I'd love to take the kids outback and run through the sprinkler or play in our new baby splash pool/slip n slide. If you have any spare swim trunks you like to leave that would be great or I can let you know before hand when I know it will be HOT!

Also incase I forget:
Jonah's milk expires tomorrow
Brody's and Makayla's snacks are running low (I think they have a couple rawritos, cheezits and a bit of Goji berries left)

Thanks
Have a great day!

Songs

Here are some songs we sing on a regular basis:
IN A COTTAGE
"In a cottage in the woods,
a little old man by the window stood,
saw a little rabbit hopping by,
knocking at my door,
saying HELP ME HELP ME HELP ME he said
before the hunters gonna bonk my head,
come little rabbit come with me
happy we will be


POPCORN POPPING
I looked out the window and what did I see,
popcorn popping on the apricot tree,
life has brought me such a nice surprise
popcorn popping right before my eyes
I can take an armful and make a treat
a popcorn ball that would smell so sweet
it wasn't really so, but it seemed to be
popcorn popping on the apricot tree


Ask your kids for the the actions :)
These are there favorite songs so far
