Luck of the Irish!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day at the playroom! We did 2 fun crafts that we’re all about the green and snack was all about rainbows. We also learned a fun new song about a leprechaun. The sneaky leprechaun left us a surprise in the office and we had lots of fun watching the “magic”. (Baking soda paste made into rocks with coins hidden inside. We added them to vinegar to uncover the treasure. Fun idea found on Pinterest)
We hope everyone out there had a fun St. Patrick’s Day.

Merry Christmas from CFY playroom

The month of December, thanks to help from Pinterest..love Pinterest, has been all about Christmas…love Christmas! Our themes were gingerbread, elves and Christmas. This week is the last week of playroom until the new year so I made it a literacy day/Christmas party/playroom. We sang our songs, did craft and had snack but then we played some games and each family went home with the book Mooseltoe, colouring book, crayons and temporary tattoos.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from CFY and see you all in the New Year!

Boo!

It’s hard to believe Halloween is just around the corner. This week we made our Halloween crafts. We made “spooky” ghosts and did some potato stamping in the shape of Jack-o-lanterns. For snack we had what the kids called “Halloween oranges”.
Next week will be our Halloween party so remember to come in your best costumes.
