Fun, Creative and Learning Times

 Hello
As always, we have been keeping busy with lots of fun, creative and learning times.
Winter weather is just about to arrive, so we are finishing up with our Fall activities and we will be moving onto Christmas soon.

So, here's what we've been up to.

Paper Bag Scarecrow


Crows


Scarecrow Mask


Blowing Leaves
This was so fun to make.  I took an old tissue box and cut off the front.
The kids coloured a picture of trees and we glued it to the back for the scene.  Next we filled up the box with leaves I had punched out of different colours and then I covered the front with a piece of plastic wrap.  
I added a straw to the top and when the kids blew into the straw, it made all the leaves blow around.


Leaf Matching


Number Mobile


Dream Catchers

Happy Thanksgiving

 Welcome

Here in Canada, we celebrated our Thanksgiving at the beginning of October.
We had fun making lots of turkeys and learning about them.

So, here's what we got up to.

Sitting Turkeys
I made a brown paper cone and we decorated them to look like turkeys.


Turkey Wreath


Inflatable Turkey
We used a plastic glove, decorated it with feathers and details and I added it over a cup with a straw.  
When the kids blew into the straw, the turkey would inflate.
THEY LOVED IT!


'T' is for Turkey
