By: Miss Christa Hi there and a very happy Thursday to you all!! Today was a wonderful day we had another blue day here at the school. Today we read two books about blueberries the first one was "Blueberries for Sal" By Robert McCloskey and the other one was called "Jamberry" By Bruce Degen. The reason why I choose to read both of these books was because we made Blueberry "Puffins." Ok a Puffin is a cross between a Pancake and a Muffin and we chose to bake them two ways one on a cookie sheet and the other in mini muffing tins, both ways turned out wonderfully delicious. I was very pleased at how the toddlers helped us measure, pour, and mix the batter with our preschool friends. I think the part of this activity that made me smile the most was seeing how each friend helped one another, as the bowl went around the table and while each child was stirring the next friend who was patiently waiting their turn held the bowl so it wouldn't scoot a lll over the table!!! That was wonderful Teamwork!! Because the children have been showing so much interest in food lately we have chosen to revolve our time around talking about a different food or two every week and then possibly create a snack that incorporates that food. We have been talking about harvesting our carrots from our garden next week, hoping to make something yummy with them, Carrot juice, Carrot cake, ooh maybe both!!
