Our First Day of School--4s Program

Today was our first day of our 4s Program!  And look, all our friends are back together.  We were so excited to do some new ''big" kid stuff today.  At calendar time, we learned about yesterday, today and tomorrow.  We started our chart on the weather, which we will keep track of all year.  We packed up our own backpack all by ourselves.  We even had to sign in when we got here.  And we are just getting started...wait until next week when we start reading and having "homework"!!  I am SO excited for another great year.

Water Sprinkler Fun

If only this picture came with sound...all their high-pitched screams and giggles today while playing in the sprinklers.  They also made a water sponge to toss around and have play water fights.  Isn't it fun to be a kid in the summer time?!

Summer Camp Begins

Today was our first day of summer camp.  We had fun learning about starfish.  Did you know they come in all different colors, they can grow their arm back if it falls off, they can have all different number of arms, it has tube feet under its arms, and they are bumpy...all of this we learned today.  Our favorite part of the day was probably the Slip-n-Slide!  Here's to a FUN summer!!

A Visit to the Horse

Today we went over to Nanie's house to visit her horse, Jazz.  We had a great time learning about the behavior of a horse (what his ears can tell us), the parts of a horse (mane, tail, horse shoes, etc), how to brush him (using different types of brushes), how to feed him (two types of hay), and so much more...it was very informative and FUN for all of us!

Hoppy Easter...From the Bunny

Today we had a surprise visit from the Easter Bunny.  We were in the middle of an egg hunt and she walked right into the backyard to join us...then she even hid some more eggs for us to find.  And since the Easter Bunny is so nice, she gave each of us our very own bubbles.  Happy Easter everyone!!

Field Trip to the Phoenix Zoo

Today we went on a field trip to the Phoenix Zoo...it's March so it was a beautiful, crowded day at the zoo! We got to see the giraffes, zebras, monkeys, and orangutans. And since it's Spring, no trip to the zoo would be complete without seeing some baby ducks. Thanks for a fun day at the zoo.
