Finally, the spring weather has arrived! Yesterday, we spent the better part of the morning rediscovering nature in the outdoors.
The worms are back! It took lots of digging, but they found the worms.
The children also noticed other signs in nature.
When we returned to the indoors, we continued the fun! The children played in mud and made mud pies.
Ms. Switzer put shaving cream on the painting table and the children experimented with different tools.
It was lots of fun getting clean after getting dirty!

We also wrote about what we know about plants to add to our "I Think..." Bulletin board.

Yesterday, we looked at different types of seeds.
In the afternoon, we soaked some beans seeds to see if they might sprout roots over the weekend. We also read a book about how plants grow. We put some paper napkin in a clear cup and put the beans in. Then we wet the paper napkin.
Now we wait!
