Down in the Pond with my Little Froggies

It's been a really fun and educational week here with our little ones at PattyKakesKidz.  Check out all our fun on learning about Pond Life.  


Let's explore our local creek.

Looking for frogs and insects was so much fun!



We found eggs along side rocks which was a thrill for this little guy.


Fishing throwing contest over the bridge.


They threw in some Fishy Crackers and we raced them all the way to the park.


They wanted so badly to cross over and check out the creek, but safety first!





Making froggy puppets.


Froggy with pink heart eyes.

Our little group is growing strong.


Our silly dragonflies.




Scissor practice.  Can you cut along the line to the pond creature?  Sure, and we can color it too.


Sequencing and Science.

Can you match the Frog Life Cycle in the correct sequence?


 Combining Art & Science  with the little ones.

With all this beautiful weather, let's do some outside painting of the pond life we are learning about.



There's the water running between the sun and the earth.




The last project of the week; making a Dragonfly Home.



Painting their home.

The importance of play as well as curriculum.  

Play will always be the number one way to learn our social skills, sharing and caring, and developing fine and large motor skills.  Check out some of our kiddos on a day to day basis here at PattyKakesKidz.









Thanks for joining us to see what we've been up to at PattyKakesKidz.

Until next week!

    1. Awww, thanks Miss Sharron. I feel like since the move, we are finally feeling the rhythm of our new preschool. Kids come in now asking where their friends are which I love hearing. They know what needs to be done before outside time and no one argues when it's time for rest time. They are starting to sing our preschool songs all by themselves, but what I love most is hearing the parents say what their children tell them in the mornings., "come on mom, I don't want to be late for school!!" :-) Love it!
