Merry-Go-Round
It always amazes me what kids will make when left to explore and build on their own. This is a "Merry-Go-Round" a couple of friends made with Lincoln Logs the other day. I had the pleasure of watching the entire construction process. It even rotates when pushed a little!

Mother's Day Gift and Books To Share
Mother's Day really crept up on us this year, so we made a quick little gift using recycled baby food jars. We painted the jars in glue, laid tissue paper all over and sealed with another coat of glue. After drying overnight, we wrapped them in paper lunch sacks that the children decorated.
Here are some wonderful books to share about Mothers and their love for their little ones:
Happy Mother's Day!!!! I hope all you Moms and Grandmothers have a WONDERFUL Mother's Day!!!!

I am forever re-purposing items for use in my classroom. Be sure to check out my post this month on PreK+K Sharing called "3 R's: Recycle, Reuse and Re-purpose!". I'm sharing some of ways I re-purpose materials for my class!

Animal Habitats: A surprise student made book!
For show and tell last week in our Summer Bridge Kindergarten transition program, one of our students brought in this wonderful book that she (age 4) and her sister (age 9) made at home, for fun! I was so impressed!!!! I love that it is informational, and they used a variety of ways to illustrate, from stencils, to stickers to color photos from the internet.
