Another Perfect Autumn Day!

A Beautiful Fall Afternoon!

We headed out to look for signs of fall. There were leaves falling, "wooly bears" crawling, and acorns along our path. We spent a nice moment looking out over the pond as the leaves fell and floated peacefully along. Our afternoon ended with a picnic snack and rolling downhill.

Until Next Time,

walking together

Muddy Boots Club was all about the walk today. We walked across bridges, in the field, and in the forest. We compared the cool air in the shade to the warm air in the sun, saw many butterflies (one of which is apparently named "Flappy") and holes in the ground, and heard the crickets and the birds. Collecting jars were for leaves and rocks and sticks, and some of the children made "smoothies" which a stick for a straw!
Enjoy!

Collecting and Forts

What a beautiful day to be outside today! We headed out to play in the woods, and on the way we brought out "collecting jars" and collected so many crickets! There were an abundance of crickets in the field. In the woods we set up a fort with sheets and clothespins, and spent a long stretch of time out of doors. Some of the children continued to collect, others began dramatic play with the fort, others wandered with sticks and sat on rocks. Altogether a great day!
Until Next Time,
Michele

off we go!
