Fall raking, crafts and art.

 

                                                           Getting our blood pumping!

 

 An impromptu project. I cut up candles and melted the wax into the glass baby jars so thatI could stand up little candles inside a receptacle. The children watched as I melted wax, talked about the flame being hot and about oxygen being needed for it to  burn. I showed K the materials of glass, wax, string and  wood matches. He watched as I singed my fingers and winced. He was learning so much at a preschool level about materials and safety!

 

A fox that Mary drew for fun!

 

 

 

Chores! Note the foot. I had sent Mary out with the camera when they were raking in the yard.
