Today "Mary Poppins" came to story time complete with British Accent. How cute is that? We haven't watched that show for a long time. We are overdue. She taught them a manners class similar to last time, but I don't think you can overdo it with manners.
"Mary" gave all of the kids a tissue and taught them to use it, meaning not to wipe their nose on shirts...etc. Good call Mary.
The craft today was a table setting. She taught them how they were supposed to look when you set the table and then they glued them on themselves.
After the craft was done they got to eat on it. Nice touch I thought.
Palmer's finished product.
I saw this craft on some great craft blog out there. You cut an orange in half and use it with finger paint to make a picture. We learned that you have to skimp on the paint if you want it to look like an orange half. Too much paint just looks like an orange blob.
The little kids didn't get to use the paint. They were happy just coloring at the "kids" table though.
Totally into it.
Maddy had been waiting for this project from the moment I told her about it. I don't think she loved it though. The paint was hard to work with...we did figure it out eventually though.
Lincoln was all about the paint and mixing the colors. He liked this project.
This is Palmer's picture. We finally got the paint to look how it was supposed to.
