Thanksgiving Party






We had a little Thanksgiving feast at preschool complete with turkey sandwiches (which was more of a hit with me and the other parents), muffins, brownies, and chips. We played Hide & Go Seek the Turkeys (where we pretended we were either the Turkey farmer or the turkeys hiding). We played a pumpkin basket game with mini pumpkins, and then we watched the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving movie (and ate popcorn). We had pilgrim hats, made little turkeys, and talked about what we are thankful for.

"I" is for ice-cream & Igloos




We only had Eli and Aaron at school today. We definitely missed our other friends, especially because we taste tested Ice-cream and made edible igloos out of paper bowls (Not edible), frosting and mini marshmellows.

Funny side story: I bought Moose Tracks Ice-cream (it's delicious). So, we were eating our ice-cream and then Eli announced that it was called "Moose Tracks" and then Aaron was like, "I don't want to eat this anymore!" I tried to explain to him that it was just called "Moose Tracks" and that it really didn't have moose in it. He didn't believe me, he wouldn't eat anymore :)

Ice Experiment


We conducted a little Ice experiement for letter "I" to see which ice cube would melt the fastest (the one in the glass, plastic, or aluminum containers. We wrapped one in cotton squares. This picture isn't that great, but I thought it was kindov funny, all the kids are doing something different ;)

Breadmakers







In honor of letter "B" we pretended to be Bakers and made our own French Bread. The kids love when we cook, they get to wear the chef hat, pour in ingredients and of course eat our creations.

B for beans


So, we glued beans on our big B's. The kids REALLY like Glue I discovered! Time to go buy some more :)
