Chickadee dee dee!
It was a lively day today at preschool. I came down the hill as the kids enjoyed their snack break by a beautiful warm fire. Gwen read to the kids as they munched on orange slices, crackers, and other delicious foods. My presence was met with waves and smiles with one kiddo remarking “You’re the camera Lady!” I was so happy that they remembered me from my last visit. Another exclaimed, “I’ve never met a REAL photographer before.” I was so excited to join them for a morning of games in the light snow. This time the kids were less shy and began to ask me questions about my job and photos. Whenever a child found a particularly gnarly stick, or hugged their friend, they sang out, “Isa take a photo of this!” Below are a few selections of kid directed photos (Which always turn out to be my favorite). Soon it was time to put mittens back on and transition to the day’s activity. Everyone was anxious to open a clear bin filled with beautiful colored scarves and fabrics. Taking turns, they wrapped scarves around trees in a small circle. Kids played chickadee birds and called each other to signal switching trees before whoever was “it” reached their abandoned tree. Fionna was there whenever kids needed a refresher on the rules. Some were so excited, they ran without remembering to call their friends! Rules or no rules, it was clear the game was a hit. With red cheeks and big smiles, the kids ran and giggled until it was time to slide back down the climbing hill. Another fun filled day in the woods!
