To me it represents fiestas, fun, and family. There are two products in my store that are specifically geared towards this celebration.
The Runaway Tortilla is my newest retelling pack that can be used any time of the year, but works really well for Cinco de Mayo. It's like the gingerbread man with a southwestern flair! The book is written by Eric Alolahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10457480628250389963noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5702702406184111856.post-15137250753295585982020-01-01T18:40:00.003-08:002020-01-01T18:40:37.828-08:00Pink!One of my favorite winter books is called Pink! by Lynn Rickards. It is a sweet story about a penguin who wakes up pink. He goes to Africa to find other pink birds (flamingos) so he doesn't feel so alone. Patrick misses home and when he returns he, his family, and friends come to the conclusion that it is ok to be different.

Playdough is absolutely a favorite of my little learners, which I love because it's one of the best things out there to help develop fine motor skills. All that squeezing, rolling, poking, and manipulating strengthens the muscles in little hands. During free choice time, I always have someone who asks to use playdough. With that in mind, I decided to develop some lolahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10457480628250389963noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5702702406184111856.post-26155205107095281162017-05-26T10:02:00.001-07:002017-05-27T05:03:03.235-07:00Ice Cream Activities!

Whew! Another year is in the books. We celebrated the end of the year with an ice cream theme. Here is a peek of just a few of our activities.
We made sundaes. The whipped topping is a mixture of shaving cream and white liquid glue. Real sprinkles were added. To make the cherry on top, a small piece of red pipe cleaner was hot glued to a red pompom ball.

A couple weeks ago, we finished up a study of plants. My little learners were so engaged and invested in our learning. To make the above flower activity, I picked up several paint samples from a hardware store. They happened to have petal shaped cards, which worked out perfectly. The stems, leaves, and seeds were all cut from paint sample cards, too.

We have been super busy learning all about spring. One part of our studies was to learn about the habits of birds in the spring. We learned birds build nests, lay eggs, and take care of their babies until they are old enough to leave the nest. To give this a "wings on" feel, we made a set of wings to wear.
