LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE DAY

Sharing the book and telling them her basket of props. |
This was really cute. In the book it talks about getting dressed up for Thanksgiving dinner. She had some wigs to show them how to fix their hair! |
She also had ties and some other clothing for them to try on. |
I missed all the food items! She said had several different things. |
You can definitely tell he knew who the Mystery Reader was! :) |
We learned about the foods that grown on trees. |
We also learned about the different animals that live in trees. |
We made a big circle to begin planting our very own tree. |
We learned how to use a shovel properly. We were all each given a turn using the shovel. |
We dug a big hole and then planted our tree. |
We went on a hayride. |
It was really cold! |
We had a great time with our friends! |
We looked at all the trees and pumpkins while we were on our hayride! |
We fed the fish and geese. |
The geese kept eating the fishes food! |
The fish were huge! |
We listened to a story. |
We learned about animals and antlers. |
We fed the goats. |
We also fed the cows. This is Oreo. She even talked to us a little! :) |
Cooking Center- We made Pumpkin Pizzas and Spider Cookies |
They chose which items they wanted on their pizza to make a face. |
We did not eat the pizzas during the center because they had to be cooked. We had our spider cookies and pizzas for lunch. I completely forgot to take a picture of the spider cookies! |
Candy Corn Math- In this center they made the front of their Candy Corn book. |
They measured how long their pencil was with candy corn, weighed them, and guessed how many were in a jar. |
Art Center- We made spider hats |
The completed hat- so cute! |
Science Center- We made slime! This was definitely the winner! I found the recipe for the slime here. It is super easy and not really messy at all. We did have to add a little more Borax (about a teaspoon more) to the recipe. They were even able to take the slime home with them! |
Today was a really fun day! They look great in their spider hats! |
To cap the day off, we had a Mystery Reader come and read Miss Spider's Tea Party! |
