The past two days have been beautiful and the Preschoolers have been enjoying every minute of it. We have been practicing our awareness skills while observing the world around us, playing games, and wandering in the woods.
We found a stick bug!
Playing in the leaves under a red maple tree.

Season’s Change song

Oh the seasons change and the leaves they fall,  and I will change myself

I will give my body to the cold,  the spring thaw will do me well

Yes I know,  I will grow

With the Earth,  between my toes

A shelf fungus mystery we fould on our wander.
The horsey log is always a favorite.
Everyone was very engaged listening to Nora tell the story of how the porcupine got it’s quills.
