End of the Year!

Well another year has come and gone.  I have 4 little ones that will be heading to Kindergarten next year.....a little sad :(  but also such an exciting time for them!  The past few weeks we have been finishing up our journals, we took some end of the year pictures and also opened up our time capsule.  They were so excited for the time capsule......for me it was awesome to see how much they had grown, height and grown in their development.  Some of the children didn't know how to write their name and now they ALL can and some even neater than before.  Also, their drawing skills have improved as well.  Some of the children were just scribbling a person and now you can actually see the body parts and tell what they are!  YAY!!!!

 
 Each child wrote their name on the chalkboard and I took their picture......will be fun to look back and see how they used to write their name

And since I never blogged about our Mother's Day gifts (I've been slacking a bit.....or just busy!), here is a picture of what the children did.....they decorated frames and I took their picture outside on the driveway with sidewalk chalk.  They also answered some questions about their mom as well......some of their answers were quite funny!
 
Today we ended our year with a pizza party, ice cream cone cupcakes, fun games outside and a volcano!!!  We are definitely ready for summer around here!  I have lots of outside activities planned as well as field trips and lots of pool time!!!

Ladybugs

Well we finished our ladybugs from last week. 
 
Just cut apart an egg carton......each "hump" will be 1 ladybug.  Then have the children paint entire hump red.
 






Once the red paint is dry, add black dots......we just painted ours on.





 
After they dried completely, we added a black pom pom for the face and added wiggly eyes......cute and easy!
