Last Month…
We had a great time at our Easter Party! We played fun games like Pin The Ear On The Easter Bunny and Easter Basket Bean Bag Toss. We went on an Egg Hunt and spent a lot of time looking for that tricky Easter Bunny.

We shared our cool costumes on Superhero day and had fun pretending we had super powers!

We participated in lots of cool art activities; Sand art, watercolors on giant coffee filters, crayon resist painting, impression painting, and collage.

We played games, made vinegar and baking soda explosions and learned about different animals.

This month we’ll plant flowers and veggies in our garden, learn about insects, and wrap up the school year.
