End of November Pics

 

Hello everyone,
 
I hope you're enjoying a relaxing and fun Thanksgiving break with your families. I wanted to quick share some pictures of all the fun the preschoolers have been having lately!
 
We were so lucky to have the Whole Foods Co-op visit us last week! Jill and Shannon from the Co-op brought some fun and unique foods and took the children on a "food exploring journey"! (<- How fun does that sound? I think dinner at my house has a new term!) Check it out!!
 
 
 



 
 
 
We ended our Community Helpers unit with a visit from one of our very own CCP parents; Ryan Morris. Officer Morris works for the Duluth Police Department, so he paid the preschoolers a visit where he showed them his uniform, talked about vehicle safety, and then of course showed us his awesome police car!

 
 
 
 
And then of course we spend the remainder of the week celebrating Thanksgiving. This is where I love to watch the preschoolers grow: before we learned all about the 1st Thanksgiving and the true meaning of the holiday, when asking a preschooler what they were thankful for, they would have said some like "candy" or "the blue room". After spending a few days learning about the Mayflower, the Native American people, and the religious oppression over in Europe, the preschoolers answers changed to being thankful for things like "having food" or "getting to live in a nice home" or "being able to choose things". What a beautiful concept for these little ones to grasp!


 

 
Enjoy the rest of the Thanksgiving break and we look forward to seeing everyone back at school on Monday!!
