p is for {leaf bag turned flying} pumpkin

i bought a leaf bag per class only to realize we didn’t have nearly enough leaves in our preschool yard to fill even one! so, we inflated them with wind power, tied them shut and used them like balloons. be warned if you do this…they tear/pop very easily. but after that they simply become kite like. : )

enjoy watching our flying pumpkin and listening to a favorite poem:

y is for yoga, preschool style

we’re going through the alphabet with yoga poses! so far we’ve done a through c plus “triangle” poses when we were talking about shapes. IMG_7005.JPG

I’ve not planned ahead…I imagine we might have to get creative with some letters.

b is for baby

we had a little “baby corner” with a few extras: wipes, empty baby food jars, tiny spoons, board books, rocking chairs…

(although we never found the bottles so babies either nursed or “grew up enough to eat food that is safe for babies to eat.”)

it was also a great place to look at a glow in the dark show and tell item…under the couch is the darkest place we have!

o is for october!

it’s a new month and i stumbled on this old video of ours, perfect for the season….which led me to a trip back in time over the years. click here for more of our movies: good stuff
