December Bulletin Board: Christmas Tree

We decided to make our Thankful Tree (from November) into our Christmas Tree.
It is pretty much the coolest tree around.

F is for Family [A Journal Page Idea]

F is for Fun with Foam

We are really good at making messes around here.
Messes mean that fun is being had, right?
Of course.

This (Shaving Cream) Foam was both messy and fun.
Even I couldn't help getting my hands in on the mess. After class, my husband asked me what was all over my camera....
Oh you know, just a little Foam.
:)

F is for Face Paint

We did a little Face painting for the letter Ff.
Continue reading, but all judgement stops............... HERE.
I am not the best face painter, but I try.

I had some pretty awesome requests. Ballerinas, Cats, Super Heroes....

Spiders and Spider Webs


Houses with grass


Letters (P is for Phillip!)


And, Green IPods..... ?


I told you that I try:)

F is for Float

Letter Pp Playtime Centers

P is for Poppers!

At the beginning of the summer, I purchased some extra boxes of Pop-its and stashed them away for Letter Pp Week.
The kids thought I was amazing when I pulled them out of my cupboard.
"Poppers!" "Where did you get them?" "They go away from stores when fireworks are over!"

Yes, yes they do.

I may have told them that I am magic.

What?

Anyway.

We had a popping good time with them outside on the cement!

P is for Puzzle [Create your own]

My preschoolers loved making their own puzzles for the Letter Pp!

I purchased these blank puzzles online at discount school supply. [I'm pretty sure my local teacher supply store carries them too.]

They colored pictures on them, and then took them apart and put them back together over and over [and over and over] again. It was a really fun activity for me to observe:) After they were finished, they each got an envelop to put their puzzle pieces in and take home.

P is for Pajama Picnic

It was really simple, and loads of fun.
Come to preschool in your pajamas, bring a sack lunch.

I'll let the pictures do most of the talking from here!




We even had some visitors....
Would a picnic ever be successful without a few ants? :)
[I found the ants in the magician's section of my local party supply store. I couldn't help myself!]

P is for Popcorn Snack during Reading Time

Our preschoolers enjoyed a popcorn snack for the Letter Pp from their mats on the carpet this week while we read some of our favorite Letter Pp books.
