Lucky Little Ones in the Younger Pod

Room 5 mixed it up with our cooking activity this week. We opted for a healthy recipe given to us by one of our wonderful families, with a celebratory twist. We made GREEN banana soft-serve “ice cream”! The ingredients were simple and healthy and our friends had a good time hopping up in Mrs. Erin’s arms to hold down the blender and watch the ingredients transform into a delicious treat!

 

The ingredients are simple and sweet: frozen bananas, hemp milk (to make it lactose and soy free), vanilla, and honey. We just added a few drops of green food color to make our treats fittingly festive!

Out on the patio the younger pod enjoyed St. Patrick’s themed activities like crafting shamrock crowns, free paint with tones of green, and of course- green goop in the sensory table! It was a wonderful way to spend the holiday together. We are some lucky folks!

Our Worshiping Wee Ones

Room 4 has been having a praise, worship, and prayer time before resting our heads. Our worship time has been lead by our newest teacher in the younger pod, Ms Wendy. The kiddos have looked forward to this time each day. They enthusiasticly raise their hands, close their eyes and praise Him. It is one of the most beautiful sights to behold!

Rosca De Reyes in Room 4

 Look! He found the baby!  We have been learning all about the role of the wise men in the Story of Jesus birth. Today and tomorrow we will be celebrating Rosca De Reyes (King’s Day). In Mexico this is the traditional celebration of the Wise men arriving with gifts for the infant King. Rosca De Reyes is January 6.

Traditionally, if you find the baby you are responsible for feeding the group next month at the same time. 😉(no pressure, families! 😜)
