Ella Catherine is really enjoying her new daycare. They have been learning alot. Every week they have a theme and each days activities revolves around that theme. Last week the theme was buggin out. Every day they learned about a different bug. The art time, music time, story time etc all revolved around that particular bug. The bugs were ants, bees, fireflies, walking sticks and lady bugs. They have displayed them outside their classroom and they are all so cute I just had to take pictures. This week the theme is earth day and they have learned about air/clouds, the earth, soil, rain, and trees. In art time they made clouds, painted paper plates to look like the earth, made homemade plato trees and baked them into necklaces, made rain sticks and today are making soil collages. She is always very excited to show off her work when I go pick her up. I can't tell you how happy it makes me that she is enjoying her new daycare.
On a completely different note, she can now sing the entire alphabet song without missing any letters, can count to ten ( sometimes 15) without missing any numbers and she knows all her colors (although red and blue occasionally get mixed up).
I can't believe how fast she is growing up!
Below are the pictures and some of the fun facts that she learned last week.
The Honeybees' (her classroom's) artwork from buggin out week.
Did you know Bees have 5 eyes?
Or that Ants never sleep?
Did you know that walking sticks can grow to 33cm long?
Or that Fireflies are actually beetles?
The artwork from Earth week so far. Looks like the H in Earth had an untimely demise. :)

The playground. She looks like pigpen everyday when we pick her up thanks to the red dirt from the rocks on the playground. Small price to pay for her having so much fun!
