Santa and Snow

On Monday we made a Santa face out of shapes. The kids worked on their counting skills while counting all the circles and triangles. We also played a fun memory game called "What's in Santa's bag." The kids took turns pulling toys out of Santa's bag. Once all the toys were out we each had a turn picking one toy and putting it back in the bag (while the other children's eyes were shut) then the kids opened their eyes and tried to think of what was missing.

On Wednesday we did a lot of counting. We counted many different items in the preschool including, candy canes, gingerbread cookies, and Santa's. The kids also enjoyed listening to the story of the Gingerbread Man.

Friday was very fun! It was our snow day! The room was covered in snowflakes and the kids made their own to take home. They also had a blast playing in snow! They loved watching the powdered snow grow into "real" snow. It was messy but sure fun!




Just a few more days of preschool and then it will be Christmas break!
