Artsy Thursday


At center time, we had 2 different art activities available.

First, the children used markers on a large piece of paper. 


 Then, they used different brushes to paint a large piece of paper.  We used 2 different kinds of blue to make an ocean.


We will add ocean creatures to our ocean next week.

Tomorrow is Family Friday.   Please send in a picture of your family for your child to share.  We are looking forward to seeing family members during table time or during book and music time.
