Toddler Times

We have been learning all about Spring the past few weeks and what a fun time we have had.   To celebrate the end of our “Spring” adventure, we explored the wonderful world of Spring weather.  Painting raindrops and even getting to watch the rain come down outside were some of the fun activities we enjoyed.  But the best activity we did was exploring water in a sensory tub.  We splashed, we giggled, and we even dumped the water on the floor!    Such a “fun” time in Toddlerville!!!

With Spring in “full swing”, our Toddler friends have been enjoying the many fun aspects that go along with the season.  We have been going on listening walks in the buggy, bird watching on the playground, and easel painting outside.   What a fun time we have been having!!

The beautiful Spring-like weather outside is sure to make anyone smile, especially my Toddler friends.  We have enjoyed going out on the playground and cruising along out back on the bye bye buggy.   Miles and miles of Toddlerville smiles!! 

We have been learning about the color blue and guess who showed up to help us…none other than that “cookie-eating” fella, Cookie Monster.  The children enjoyed nibbling on Cookie Monster cookies thanks to one of our awesome parents.  “C is for cookie and that was good enough for us.” 

We are learning all about our colors and what better way to enhance that learning, than by “playing” with some colorful blocks.  The Toddlers had a great time exploring our Mega blocks.  They would build up the blocks and then knock them down.  Such a wonderful “fine motor” activity.  :)

Every Friday we have some very special friends join us…our “Reading Buddies”.   Some of the First grade friends come by and read us some of their favorite stories.  What a wonderful time we have!!  :)

The Toddlers LOVE to do Art!   We paint, we glue, we color, but they have a “favorite” Art activity….drawing with chalk!  Black butcher paper makes the best makeshift chalkboard.  We may get messy, we may get silly, but we sure do have a great time.  Expressing themselves through Art is priceless.      

Even though the weather outside has been anything but “frightful”, the Toddlers are having a blast pretending that we have snow.  They took a trip in their makeshift  ”sleds” and threw a few snowballs along the way.  :)  There is nothing like a big empty box to pass the time away.

We are having such a wonderful time in Toddlerville!!!   The boys enjoy playing with their trucks, musical instruments, dressing up in costumes during Theater time, and love to act just plain old silly at times.  As the cold Winter days pass by, we are having a blast inside!!  :)

I would like to wish you all the best this Christmas.     I hope you all enjoy your time with family and friends.  Cheers!!
