B Day Hurray!

Daily Question: Bb Day, Hurray! Do you like Bubbles?

One of our students came in carrying a red balloon which began a spontaneous "B Words" Game. We came up with several words that began with Bb and the children helped to color our pictures.

Hugh demonstrates how to make B the Bear's Bubble Art ( or Bubble Stationary). Mix 1/2 C. water, 3 T. Tempera Paint, and 1 T. liquid dish soap in a cup. Put a straw into the cup and gently blow into the straw until it makes bubbles at least an inch over the cup. Turn the piece of paper over and let the paint bubbles pop on to the sheet. Enjoy!



Snacks included Circus Animal cookies and milk. Special thanks to Preston for our Tuesday snack of bear cookies and bananas!
For outdoor play today, each child received his/her own small bottle of bubbles to blow and Miss Julie had a big bubble wand that the children took turns waving.
