Big Field, Big Fun!

Wednesday’s are always fun for Room 1 because we get to enjoy the “big field” at the elementary school.

We exercise, improve coordination, engage in cooperative play, and most importantly… WE BUILD FRIENDSHIPS!

You Can’t Catch Me….

Room 4 has been reading Christmas stories about some mouse friends who move in to gingerbread houses. We decided they needed some roomies! Hence, our gingerbread men were born. Stay tuned next week for their newly constructed house!

Christmas Bling

Students transformed pine cones into mini Christmas trees. They showered them with loads of glitter, adding much bling to their trees.

Wintery Wishes from Room 5

The friends in Room 5 have been hard at work getting our bulletin ready for the main lobby! They mixed up some sparkly puff paint and created whimsical snowmen. While they worked on their art, we worked some math foundations into the activity. We discussed ordering, shape, and size while we put each snowman together. They are very proud of their work and so are we! Check out their finished product in the main lobby for the remainder of the Christmas season.

Tree Lighting Fun in Room 4!

Today we celebrated the coming of Christmas with our annual Tree Lighting Ceremony. After the ceremony, our little ones enjoyed hot cocoa and Christmas cookies…yum-o!

Stone Soup!

Room 1 has been busy slicing, dicing & cooking our Stone Soup. After reading the book Stone Soup by Ann McGovern we worked together to make our very own pot of soup. Each child brought a veggie or ingredient from home; which we cleaned and cut – onion, carrots, celery, zucchini, garlic, potato and lots of other yummy ingredients!

After letting our soup boil we enjoyed a yummy feast of soup, fresh fruit, bread rolls and sparkling apple cider. It was Delicious!!

We are so thankful for all of our amazing Mommys that came and helped us!

Miss Sarah prayed with us and thanked Jesus for this yummy food and for all of God’s blessings.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Soup From A Stone. Fancy That!!

Stone Soup Days at PCS

Stone Soup has been a tradition at Pasadena Christian Preschool since the very beginning. It’s based on a folktale that’s about sharing and coming together as a community: “Bring what you got. Put it in the pot. Every bit counts, from the largest to the least. Together we can celebrate a Stone Soup Feast!”
