Valentine's Day and Tt Week

For Valentine's Day last we celebrated with a fun party for the kids on Thursday. We made special bags for the Valentine's Day cards. The kids also made a cute little Valentine's pictures. Thanks to Shannon (Briella) for the yummy Red Velvet cake, Sherri (Katie) for the juice, and Sarah (Konner and Karson) for the cookies. The kids enjoyed passing out their goodies in the bags and had a great time eating all the yummy treats!

We have to apologize - these past few weeks have been crazy with snow days and Valentine's Day, etc. We just haven't been able to stay on a good schedule. We did learn the letter Tt today. We learned to sign it as well. The kids talked about things that start with Tt such as tiger and teddy bear. Grayden brought a very cool transformer and many Thomas the trains that start with Tt - Toad, Thomas, Toby and Trevor. Presley and Addy dressed as twins yesterday and Presley brought a couple of tractors too. The kids reviewed our letters and we reviewed how to sign them all. Not bad for having such a break between circle time days. The kids sang the alphabet song and we also sang "Mr. Turkey" as we made turkeys (out of our hands) for craft time.
Mr. Turkey
Mr. Turkey
Are you getting nice and fat,
We eat you at Thanksgiving,
What do you think of that!
Next week we will continue with the letter Uu. We usually do circle time on Tuesdays but sometimes do it on Wednesdays so if the kids bring something, they can always leave it in their cubby on Tuesday if we don't do circle time then. Thanks and have a great week!
