Colorful Creations

We had a great week of preschool!!! Sadly, some of our preschool friends couldn't make it. First we had our play time. There were lots of options!! There were some pattern blocks, a marble track, and some Legos.Then came Circle Time. This week's Circle Time had a few new things introduced, like Miss Lauren's birthday, the letter C, and the month October.Next we did our first activity!!! There were colored pads all over the floor. One of the children would roll our big dice that would tell us how to move from one color to the next. (In this picture it is fly to a blue.)After all the dice game we made clay rainbows. We only had red, yellow, and blue clay, so we had to mix it for the other colors. The children really loved mixing and rolling the clay.Once the rainbows were complete, we had snack, rainbow colored goldfish! But, before the children ate the goldfish, they had to sort them by color. They also came up with another game to. It was called "Which hand is the red goldfish in?"Then we colored some glasses. These were special glasses, because when you put them on everything looked pink!!!Next we went on a scavenger hunt. Each child got a list of what color of things to find. Then they dug through a box of stuff until they found something that color.After scavenger hunting we painted color wheels. Of course, we only had red, yellow, and blue paint, so we had to mix the colors. Once all the colors were mixed the children used the colors they made to paint a picture inside their wheels.

We had a fun day of preschool and can't wait to see our friends again next week!!!!
