Joke of the Day

Q. Why did the man put his money in the freezer?


A. He wanted cold hard cash!

Last week, along with playing outside, the kids and I also created another game out of the Power Play Campaign!  This is such a great curriculum to stay healthy and be fit.

We have been talking about portion control and had discussed how easy it is to get a serving of fruit a day, so I thought that by giving them a serving of these fruits, the kids would like this activity even more.

The kids loved it!  Thank you Power Play!

Spring is finally here!  Unfortunately with Spring here, everyone's allergies are kicking in and this week we decided to spend time working outdoors...I mean spending some time on outdoor activities...we also spent quality time inside with some wii action as well.  Also, throughout last week we made some beautiful flower bouquets to help the children enjoy nature, regardless of their allergies.  These are allergy free!  Yay!

Eating healthy means being healthy and staying strong. Therefore, my class wants to let everyone know that it is that time of the year again.  Drink lots of water and eat lots of healthy foods.

Most importantly stay out of the heat!!

This week we manged to make this wonderful St. Patrick's day art project!  I thought the kids would get a kick out of this project because of the materials involved.  It was fun to watch them guess what they were going to do with cereal and cotton balls.  After many guesses I finally explained the project and let them go to work.  Of course it was hopeless to think that some of the cereal was not going to end up as a snack!  I think this is an awesome entertaining project!  Happy St. Patties day from everyone at Cottonwood Creek!

Here are some of our completed Pinatas for your viewing pleasure.  We are currently waiting for our Hello Kitty to be completed.  The artist has been taking her time and lots of effort in finishing her pinata/masterpiece.

Also, homemade puff paint?...well sort of.  Our students learn how to use proper measuring techniques and the science behind making new colors by combining colors we already have.  Arts & crafts is so much fun!
