Typical day at daycare

They keep the kiddie busy at daycare. Here was the report that I received when I picked up Mikey today from daycare.

During circle time, we read "the best Halloween hunt ever" and "froggy's Halloween". We also sang "five little pumpkins" and "the welcome song". We also talked about halloween and how we all get to wear costumes and say "trick or treat".

Today the children helped measure out the ingredients for our Halloween cupcakes. We measured out the oil, water, and we made sure we had three eggs to put I to the mix. The children then took turns mixing the batter and helping pour the batter into the cupcake Pam.

For art today the hildren worked at the table with markers and crayons and created pictures on their paper. Some drew lines while others made lots of circles. The children had fun trying out each of the colors they saw, some just liked one color. Then children then practiced putting the tops back on the markers so they wouldn't dry out.

We had music class today with Ms. Margaret. The children sang "when it's autumn" and "black bat farm". We also sang "she'll be coming around the mountain" as we looked at the pictures in the book. We marched around the room in a line shaking our musical instruments.

For science the children learned how the cupcake batter turned from a liquid mix into solid cupcakes. We rook a walk to the kitchen and talked about how the cupcakes need to go into the hot oven to cook. We also talked about safety and how we don't touch the oven because it's very hot and we could get hurt if we touched it.
