Room 3 had an amazing time during safari week. Everything from the water play to the “Jungle Book” movie to the reptacular animal show was amazing. To add to all the excitement, the Room 3 teachers had the pleasure of leading Chapel this week. The topic was the Baptism of Jesus. To end the week, the children were able to look at and pet different exotic animals; in addition, they were able to enjoy pizza during lunch!

Although the week was short, it was still packed with tons of fun and excitement for both children and teachers alike! During our derby madness, we enjoyed activities such as water play in pools on the big field, going to Chapel, making ice cream and having our very own petting zoo! Consisting of an alpaca, a goat, chickens, bunnies and ducks, the petting zoo was an awe-inspiring activity that the children loved. 

It’s the second to last day of fiesta week and what better thing to do than bust open some piñatas.The children could barely contain themselves when they found out they were going  to open up a piñata and collect some toys and candy. As an added challenge and element of fun, the children were blind folded when they stepped up to bat. The only excitement level was surreal, especially when they heard Mr. Timmy was going to hit piñata as well. Worry not though! An end to fiesta week means the beginning of another party in the following weeks. 

The children in Room 3 had an awesome time making a not-so-spicy dish. What is it you ask? It’s none other than Pico De Gallo! Ingredients were chopped, diced, sliced, squeezed, measured and poured. Some of the children even had a chance to taste limes! The children unleashed their inner Iron Chef and created a dish that appealed to the palates of children and teachers alike.
