When we got to the classroom there were 5 stations set up that the kids could do at their own pace. Samantha went directly for the painting with apples!
After she got done making a total mess with the paint and apples ;-) we headed over to the station where she got to glue apples onto a tree.
The last craft station, which was also the least messy, was Samantha's last choice. ;-) At this station she got to color a picture of an apple.
She wanted to go to the snack station first, but I told her that she had to do the crafts first. So, after she did all 3 of them, she made a beeline for the snack table. She was very excited to see apples and animal crackers to eat! :-)
While we waited for group time to start, Samantha played in the rice table.
After playing, eating, and crafting, we had a short group time where we sang 3 songs and read a book. After group time we headed down to the gross motor room for some free play. Super fun!
When we got home it was time for lunch. Samantha asked for an apple for lunch since we had spent all morning talking about apples.It was a very fun morning. while there I found out that this (free) playgroup goes on every Thursday morning. Looking forward to next week! :-)
