Choosing Playdates

Today we talked more about Queen Esther's use of kind words.
What kind words does Queen Esther say?
"Please", says Sender.
We practice using many kind words, and see Queen Esther as an example of positive behavior.  
We would love to hear if your child uses kind words at home.  Please send an email or note and it will be noted publicly :)
Queen Esther is kind to her friends, which inspired us to make playdates!

The children come up and choose a friend to invite to their house.

Hannah goes to put her playdate in her lunch box.

Mendel is holding his playdate.

Marnie shows Kayle her playdate.




Other happenings:
Today we painted Queen Esther's palace in royal purple.


We enjoyed a long walk in the beautiful sun!

Queen Esther + her Palace

Today we met Queen Esther.  She is a kind queen.  She uses kind words and loves her friends.

Queen Esther lives in a palace.  The children look at the pictures of the palaces and notice how big the building is.


We then build a palace together!


And put queen Esther inside.

Other happenings:
Kayle uses gemstones to trace a triangle.


Our sensory tub this week has jewels.  The children use Sivas to find the buried treasures.

Happy to be Back!

We are happy to be back after a long weekend.  The children greet and acknowledge one another upon arrival.  Some even offer hugs :)
Ella sorts the items according to colors.

Sender plays with the new green playdough.

Lia enjoys playing with the new baby diapers.

Ella creates a beautiful design with the rubber bands.


The children ask for music to dance.  They find strings and hold opposite ends and dance in pairs.   All their own initiative!
