Spring was in the air this week and our theme fit perfectly! We continued to talk about BUGS and moved into the magical world of caterpillars and their transformation into butterflies.
It was a great way to explore circles, symmetry, and the four basic stages of the life cycle for these creatures. We enjoyed lots of sunshine and warm weather as we played outside on our playground. Getting back out made us feel free like butterflies!
New vocabulary included "chrysalis". Ask your child to tell you about that interesting word.
We read a favorite book "The Very Hungry Catterpillar" by Eric Carle as well as many non-fiction books this week. Check out all the great resources at the library and local bookstores. Our friends are avid listeners enjoy the beautiful illustrations.
More "springtime themes" coming this month - don't forget to "spring forward" with your clocks this weekend!
