Getting ready for Halloween

The kids are so creative! When preschool starts we have "preschool stations" for the first 15 minutes or so. There will be misc. activities for the kids to do while we wait for everyone to get there. On Monday one of the stations had pretend candy corn to play with. The kids made a candy corn cake and took turns singing "Happy Birthday" to each other. It was really cute.



Wednesday was our Pumpkin Day. The kids practiced their counting skills using pumpkin seeds. We also had fun reaching inside a real pumpkin and trying to take the slimy seeds out. Some kids really enjoyed this while others were fine just watching. Alivia was the winner, pulling out more than 50 seeds! The next highest was 6 pumpkin seeds. :)





The kids also had a good time making different pumpkin faces to match the different pictures.





On Friday we had some fun Halloween activities. The kids were able to decorate the trick or treat bags that they will be using on Monday.



We also played a fun counting game with spider rings and a dice. The first one to get rings on all 10 fingers wins!







I can't wait until our Party on Monday!
