We flew the coop!

The interest in birds made us think about birds in our neighborhood.  We went for a walk to visit the neighbor's chicken coop.  We noticed how colorful the feathers were, the noise that they make, how they use their beaks, and that they like to eat tomatoes.

Pecking at the tomato



"That chicken is fierce!" -E

Happy First Day!!! First days are filled with anticipation, nervousness, excitement, giggles, and so much more. Connections are forming. With each other, between materials, and new spaces.

We wondered, "What can your hands make?" PV - "I made a dance floor! People can dance here" CC - "It's me! Legs and a my face"  We also wondered "What stories do bugs tell?"  Of course snack came and some were VERY excited for this part of our day.  EU - "My belly has been so hungry!"  BC - "I love snack"

They really wanted to make a call, so they called Miss Brooke who was in the other room!
