JUST LOOKING BACK

Learning Step By Step Daycare

The Theme for week is about Birds.

I told my children that Birds and Children are alike .
The birds are born to live high in a trees in a bird nest called home.
Just like children live in home with Mother and Dad. Then the Birds
have to leave their nest. They have learn to find food and learn to fly.
Just like Children they live with mommy and Daddies. The children have go
daycare or school so they can learn ABc and 123 . So they can grow up to be like
Mon and Dad .
I shared with my children they are leaving me
because they are spreading their wings to flying and will learn many
different thing at school.

Here is a finger play we did this week.

Five baby robin watch Daddy Robin soar, hold up (5 finger)
One baby leave the nest ,and now there are four. ( thumb)
Four baby robins, high up in a tree.
One flies to catch a worm. and now there are three (index)
Three baby robin had nothing to do,
One tried his new found wing and then there were two ( middle)
Two baby robin frolicked in the sun.
Another robin chased a bug, and then there was one (ring)
One baby robin, left all alone,
And this baby robin decide to stay home.

We have a picture window which we watched birds all week .
I throwed out cornbread and the birds came too eat .
Tanner also found a bird nest outside our picture window. The child watch the
birds eat,and fly. The children look at the different kinds of birds. We
saw Red. Blue, Black Birds and Robins.

We played hide the feathers this week and the children enjoyed very much.
We aslo played draw a bird by rolling dice, Each no of the dice was giving a bird
body part . For example 1 was the head, 2 was the body ,3 was one leg. Ect. The pictures turn out very good.
Tanner is age 8. . He drew the picture of the bird that is red and orange. To good .

The children are going back to school Tuesday . I sure will miss them .
But when ONE DOOR CLOSES ANOTHER DOOR OPENS. OH SO TRUE.
My courage and determination come from God. Colby will not be coming back because his mother got layed off. I sure will miss his smiling face and the words NANNA and the kisses on my cheek
Just looking back I have had a great summer. The only thing is where did it go.
