It has been a very busy month and I can't believe we are into the Halloween activities already. The children have been exploring, learning, creating and developing new friendships and bonds with the teachers. Sorry for the sideways pictures but here is a little 3 year old happily playing in the big black truck. The gross motor room has been a buzz with activity as the children been challenging their co-ordination, movement, abilities and some times the teachers nerves.


Happy sliders rush to the top and slide their way down a roller coaster, a water slide and sometimes an airplane as they use their imaginations to maneuver around the play structure.

Halloween set-up was done on Thursday to ready for the upcoming week of festivities and this little girl didn't take long discovering the costumes and she transformed herself into someone else as she went trick-or-treating in the classroom.

The barn has been transformed into a Haunted House (preschool style) but it didn't keep out this little happy man.

We were talking about the Farm with the preschool children this week and these hilarious cows were created by the 3's and they are even anatomically correct.

If you have a 2 year old you have likely heard about our friend Little Mouse. This is a simple colour game of hide and seek and the children squeal with delight every time Little Mouse is found.
"Little Mouse, Little Mouse, Are you in the green house?"


Our 2's got a little sensory experience as Melanie painted their little feet for footprint chicks. Do you think it tickles? Check out that smile!!

We will be having special activities in all of our programs next week for Halloween so get your little ghouls and goblins prepared with their costumes and we look forward to seeing them.
Thanks for checking in....Karen
