BUNNY RINGS 

I made them little rings.

COLOURING PLASTIC EGGS

I picked up some white plastic eggs at the Dollar Store and we coloured easily and with no mess.

I put rice into a bag, dropped in some food colouring and then the kids added their egg.  I closed the top of the bag and the kids rolled the eggs around in the bag to colour them. 

They turned out so pretty and the kids were really pleased.

COLOURING EGGS

SNACKS

We made little Rice Krispie nests, added some green dyed coconut and topped it off with some

Mini Eggs.  Yummy

EASTER GAME

My kids had such fun with this game.  

They had to pick up the eggs with the bunny lifters and fill the basket.  

It turned into magical eggs that you could only touch and hide using the lifters.

Well that's it for now.

Thanks for coming by and taking a look.

The Very Hungry Caterpillar

 Hello and Welcome

One of our favourite books is The Very Hungry Caterpillar.  It's a fun story about how the caterpillar eats his way through the week and then becomes a butterfly.

I thought it would be a fun theme to work on with the kids.

So here's what we did.

Caterpillar

The kids coloured green strips of paper and we glued them onto a leaf that have eating circles punched into it.

Caterpillar Puzzle

I printed out a picture of the Hungry Caterpillar, the kids coloured it and then we cut it into a puzzle.

Caterpillar Game

We made a 'Feed the Caterpillar' game with all the foods from the story.

Story Sequencing 

Using our story as a reference, we recreated the story.

Paper Tube Butterfly

Some of the other things we did too!

Paper Plate Basket

My kids made a basket to use to collect dandelions.

Windsock

Swing Printable

This was a fun 3D printable we did.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.

Happy Easter

Last week we celebrated Easter with lots of fun creating, an Easter Egg hunt and fun snacks.

So fun celebrating Spring and Easter.

So here's what we did last week.

We decorated a paper cup to make our bunnies.

Easter Eggs

I picked up some plastic eggs at the Dollar Store and the kids decorated them with colourful pieces of tape.  Easy for little hands and good fine motor skills.

Easter Baskets

We made these cute little Easter baskets from a paper plate.

We used them for our Easter egg hunt.

Snack

I made these simple nests by making some Rice Krispie Squares and then pressing them into a muffin tin to get the nest shape.  The kids added some green coconut that I simply tinted with some food colouring and then the little eggs.

Yummy!

Treats

Some take home treats. 

I found these cute carrot bags and I filled them with some orange Fishy Crackers.

Found these sweet little bunny bags at the Dollar Tree and they were so cute and perfect for holding some bubbles and a few little Easter Eggs.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.

Have a great week.

Yummy Apples

 Hello and Welcome

We had a fun week exploring apples.

My new kiddos are very young, so we just worked on the different colours of apples.

So here's what we did last week.

Worm in the Apple

I cut out an apple shape, glued it onto a piece of cardboard for stability and then the kids added lots of apple seeds.

When we were finished gluing, I drew a face on one of their fingers and then we pretended that the worm was coming out of the apple.  So fun.

Way up High in the Apple Tree

I traced the kid's arms to create the tree trunk.  They glued little apples onto the tree and we learned the song.

Way up high in the apple tree,

2 little apples, looked at me.

I shook the tree as hard as I could,

Down fell the apples...mmmm they tasted good.

Apple Pie, Yes Please

We used some brown paper squares for the crust of our pie, then added red apples to the center.

After that we added paper strips for the top crust and a white pom pom for the whipped cream.

Now I'm craving apple pie...my favourite!

Apple Picking Basket

Here is a basket we coloured and then added different coloured apples.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
