We had sunshine.  Yeah.  It was too wet to go outside, but it sure was great to see the sun.  Yahoo.

Our activities today were really fun.  We did a lot of things that related to our story, "Mrs. Wishy-Washy's Farm".  Mrs. Wishy-Washy always kept things neat, including the animals.  She would give the cow and the pig and the duck a bath and clean them up.  They did not like the baths so they ran away.  Then they discovered that maybe home wasn't such a bad place after all.

Well, since Mrs. Wishy-Washy liked to clean, that's what we did.  We cleaned the stepping stones with water and cloths.  We wiped them up so that they looked very shiny.  Then Mrs. Meyers had a big tablecloth and lots of newspaper trash.  We crumpled the newspaper into balls and put it on the tablecloth.  Then we all grabbed the tablecloth and made it go up and down until all of the newspaper balls fell to the floor.  Then we did it all over again.  We also had great big pieces of cardboard that we painted with water.  It is always easier to clean up at school than at home.  I wonder why?

Today we did not have a snack leader.  It was Birthday Day.  The teachers gave us cut up pieces of pineapple, watermelon and strawberries.  We each got a cool stick.  We put all of our fruit on the stick and we called it a fruit kabob.  Yum.  We liked it a lot.  Of course, it was also the day the we sang the "Happy Birthday Song" to our friends with birthdays this month.  After they blew out the candles, we each got a brownie.  Double yum!

There were new toys in the Block Center!  They are all wooden toys.  There is an airplane, a bus, a subway train and a very neat stable with some horses.  In fact, there are even more new toys, but we can't remember them all.
