Matthew riding a bike! Friends making snowball cookies.

What happen to the waterbeads? Why did they get do small over the weekend? Painting with corks. Celebrating Matthew's birthday by eating yummy cookies!

We had so much fun listening to the Bristol Bravos! We even knew some of the songs!

We had water beads donated to our class. We put them on the light table and the kids are fascinated! Here are some of the kids comments: "Why are they wet, what are they made of?" "They must have some water in them or maybe soap." "Look they bounce, water doesn't bounce." "Maybe it does now, look this one bounces." "I love these little balls." "If I break one open we can see what's inside." (After breaking one open) "look it's the same inside as outside, it's wet in here too!" "I think they're made of water."

We made a boat to go to the island so we can see the mermaid...

We talked about what to do with the dragons ice cream and how we would get it to him. The kids talked about it and we decided that we would make a giant bowl for it out of clay and put sign on it that says "to the dragon" so he would know it was for him. A second group decided that the dragon should have more food so they want to make him dragon stew. We'll keep you updated on our next adventure!

Thank you so much Sydney Meyer, Matthews grandma, for reading us fantastic stories! We loved them and we are so grateful that you gave us a wonderful book!!!

We tasted the dragons ice cream today and the kids loved it! We decided that it was too cold today to take it to the dragon so we'll see if we can go tomorrow.

Yellow and Purple Room went on an adventure. We heard about a dragon in Webster so we had to go find it! We decided to take a walk...  We found the dragon and then on the way back we found his footprints!  But why did his footprints stop? Because he's magical and he can fly of course!  To lure the dragon we need to make chocolate ice cream! We had to make a trip to Straubs to get the ingredients!  We found another footprint on the way back from Straubs! Is the dragon following us?  We drew some amazing pictures of the dragon and his castle while making ice cream in the kid kitchen. We'll get to taste the ice cream on Monday and bring some to the dragon. Check the blog next week for updates!!!
