Preschool With Miss Jacy

On tuesday we took a walk down to the grassy open area by my house. John just finished overseeding our backyard, so I thought it would be a good idea to go for a walk since we wouldn't be able to play out back. All the kids started off on some kind of bike or scooter, but that wasn't going so well. Most of them ended up leaving their mode of transportation on the sidewalk to pick up on our way back. While at the park, we ran, threw frisbee, and talked about things that started with the letter "H". Cody and Taryn made good friends with the neighborhood "stray" cat. Don't worry, we scrubbed them down good as soon as we got back.

The remainder of the time was spent in "free" play. I did have some requests for the farting dog book, so we read that together.

On Thursday, Miss Jacy was a little late for school. I had to go on a monster run and thought I had enough time before the kiddos would show up. I was wrong. Sorry Denise and Lindz.

Darn that John. He took the camera with him to work so I couldn't capture the blooming romance between Cody and Taryn. We will need to keep an eye on those 2.

We spent a lot of time playing with water colors. I just rolled out paper on the craft table and let them go crazy. I also had them paint on white pieces of paper that had the number 8 written in white crayon. As they painted, the number would show up. I think they enjoyed this activity. Stacey- I'm sorry about the paint all over Taryn's shirt.

The kids were great. I love watching them interact with each other. It's fun once you get to know their personalities and you can predict who will do what in different situations.
