Water Play is an essential for toddlers!

We love to play in water, it's the messy play for toddlers but it's  so worth it in the end! 



Lesson Plans for April



I love creating lesson plans, most people hate to do it, maybe I like it because I work with toddlers! Every week everyone is assigned a theme and we do different things regarding that theme. I have had to kinda switch it around to make things a little easier for toddlers. But so far everything is going smoothly and I have loved creating activities for my tots!

We love to paint!

I love painting with babies and toddlers, toddler's are so much more fun, because they have the best expressions when the paints squishes into their fingers and they actually get to create a mess!

What we do when it's raining outside...

Well it's been four days since we have not been able to go outside and run off all our silly energy the toddlers have. So we have created some fun things to do today. Like we did art twice today because they love it so much, and we did finger painting which I love to do with any child.

Happy April!

Big changes have entered and I'm so excited! I have been promoted to be the One Year old Lead Teacher, I have been wanting this for awhile. I love the babies and will miss them daily but will get to see them very soon in the next upcoming months.

I start next week, I'm excited for more hands on art projects, sensory time and music and movement. And let the sign language begin!

Here was our dance bulletin board we had to create for the spring dance, I was really nervous about this, because when it comes to these sort of things I'm not very good at it. But here it is.
