Let a new adventure begin

Happy Monday everyone!

Here we are, it's the beginning of a new school year and we are very happy to see our old friends and meet new friends too, we are all very excited to create beautiful memories together!

It was a little complicated to say goodbye to our mommies and daddies this morning, after a month of vacation it's not easy to go back to school but Liezel took out the musical instruments and put on some music and we started our joyful day. N asked to put on baby shark then L asked for the wheels on the bus, we all enjoyed our dance session!

Then we started other activities. There were animal figurines on one table and playdough on another table. L started by playing with the animals, he put them in line and imitated the sound of the lion. N took the monkey and L the cheetah and they went to put the animals' feet in the playdough to see their footprints and B and D really liked it and did the same!

We also used different utensils to play in the playdough. We had cookie cutters shaped like animals : a duck, a butterfly, a bird, but there were also shapes like a heart, a flower, a circle , L really liked using the shapes and saying their names, N used the duck and said "it's a coin-coin", this is the sound the duck makes in french, and D started repeating coin coin, it's fun to see N teaching french to our buds friends.

In the free play area we also had cars, finger puppets and Montessori toys. N and M liked playing with the cars a lot and N is really good at getting his friends into the game, he gave cars to all our buds friends for them to join him.

I had a lot of fun with the finger puppets and really liked playing with the bumblebee finger puppet while Marjorie was singing the bumblebee song, M and L really liked that song as well.

to start our circle time, we did dance moves : we stomp our feet, touched our knees then our head, we moved our hips and kicked our feet then we danced to uncle mc donald's song, N and I are really good at dancing, they went in the center of the circle to show their moves to everyone, it was amazing!

Then we sat down to discover eric carle's book called “do you want to be my friend?”

This book tells us the adventures of a mouse who is looking for a friend and asks a lot of animals to be their friend and we are very good in buds class to tell which animals it is! I saw the kangaroo and the sea lion, N saw the snake and the horse, L saw the hippo and the monkey, B saw the lion, L saw the crocodile and the giraffe, nice teamwork buds friends! It was so fun to identify animals together!

And as today is only a short day, it was already time to go home!

Thank you for today buds friends, take care, have a wonderful evening and see you tomorrow!
Love,
Buds Friends
