Teddy Bear's Picnic Day

Hello Followers,

I am trying to get blogging earlier in the day, but it all depends on how the day is going....Today we learned another new bear song..."Going on a Bear Hunt"...ask your child about it. And what things that start with "b" that bears like to eat...how about bees? Yep, they don't mind the bees when they are trying to get at some honey...how about baskets? Well, some pretend bears, like Yogi Bear, doesn't mind a picnic basket or two when he is hungry. We had a picnic this morning with our bears for morning snack. We had lots of fun helping our bears eat some delicious "bear friendly" snacks like bugs (raisins), peanut butter crackers and animal crackers.

We are working on developing our find motor muscles too, check out the seemingly easy task to you or I...however for a 2-3 year old and some 4 year olds, picking up pompoms with tweezers and putting them in a large egg carton is very difficult. This is one example of how we work with children to develop fine motor muscles in their fingers/hands so that they will be ready to hold a pencil someday when the time comes!

Have a great day, enjoy the photos!

Hugs,
Miss Sue
