Monday was a day full of snow fun. Even though it was too cold to go outside, I spent a good deal of the morning talking about snowflakes and snow. I read Tracks in the Snow and Winter Poems and Froggy's Best Christmas. (The last title was handpicked by Martin.)
I had this great idea of having them cut out a snowflake pattern out of folded paper. But, I quickly realized that the snowflake pattern was too intricate for the preschoolers. So, I improvised with a folded up coffee filter which I drew the lines on. That worked great! Tanner and Megan were very pleased with their snowflakes! I asked them if they wanted to create another one. But, no that one snowflake taxed their hands and scissor skills!
I also brought into the house a handful of snow....the kids were mesmerized by it. Mostly Tanner wanted to eat it! But, I had them pick out snowflakes. That was very enjoyable to watch. They loved it too!
