Marvelous Monday Sept. 25

What a beautiful Fall we are having! Today we are talking about apples. Many friends went apple picking on the weekend. We have a new survey, asking our friends if they prefer apples or pears. We are using our muscles with the playdough, painting a branch of burning bush from Mme's yard, writing Fall words and sharing the bristle blocks. Big news: our dramatic play area has been turned into an apple orchard, as well as a hay ride and a pumpkin patch. We also have a few rakes to pick up some leaves. It was such a busy place that we had to write our names on the waiting list and wait our turn!

We also had some gym time with Mme Charlotte.
