Today was a beautiful Fall day, and the Turtles took full advantage of it with two outside play times! At Morning Meeting, Tamara told an imaginary story about The Fairy and the Magic Pumpkins, and the little girl who learned the fairy's secret about how to make the pumpkins glitter with dew.
And then the Turtles got to work on their own magic pumpkins, brought in by Sarah Lynne and her mom Dawn Sandee. While one group was outside, another group worked inside on painting magically glittering pumpkins.
Center Time was also busy this morning, as children experimented with the cardboard tube that came with our new rug. They put cars through the tube, one after another in a rolling cascade, until there was an obstruction. David explained, "I just pick it up because the car is stuck, and then it rolls!"
Other children worked with the water colors, and they are quickly mastering the use of the water and paper towel to keep the paint colors bright and vivid.
Movement with Missy was so much fun as we stretched and danced with scarves. We even invented a new game, Noodle Soccer, using giant foam noodles to pass around a giant soccer ball.
