Polar Bears

Today we had a lot of fun with Bears and Polar Bears.  We explored the concept of sorting and patterns with colored bears.  It was a lot of fun and the kids loved collecting their color bears in their special cup.  Some even explored making patterns by using the pattern cards and following the directions!  I was very impressed with all of their efforts on this skill.

We also worked on our fine motor skills and made a winter sticker picture.  As you can see it takes a lot of effort for those tiny fingers to get the backs off of stickers!

Then we had a chance to get messy and have fun with paint.  The kids had so much fun making their "Polar Bear in a Snowstorm" artwork with a cotton ball and white paint.

And despite the weather, we still have a block of time for free play.  When the weather keeps us inside, we LOVE going to our neighboring class for a little neighborhood time.

And we even got to see a horse get out of his trailer and head into the  veterinarian's office!  Oooh what a day with a great group of kids.  Keep up the good work.
