“Families are like fudge, mostly sweet with a few nuts!” 

Families come in many different shapes and sizes, and each one is as special as the next. We love all of our Busy Bugs’ families and are proud to be a part of our giant EcoKids Family! 

We had so much fun learning about our families this week. We learnt about our mommies and daddies real names, not just “mommy” and “daddy”. We also asked each Bug what they call their other family members like granny, ouma, giagia and so many more! We spoke about extended family like aunts, uncles and cousins, as well as super extended family, which are the friends that become family. 

For art this week, we created our family tree, but you are going to have to wait for Art Expo to see these! 

We also asked everyone to send in a family photo of themselves for a surprise slideshow for the Bugs. The looks on their faces were priceless as they realized it was them and their family on the screen! As soon as they saw themselves, they would jump up and say, “that’s me!!!!”  It was so cute!

Just a reminder to please trim nails. 

We look forward to an awesome Sports Day tomorrow in support of our brave Busy Bug, Kai!

This week our theme was Plants and Trees. During our theme discussions, we spoke about the many things we can make from trees. One idea that really stuck with the Bugs was paper—they reminded us throughout the week that paper comes from trees… hehe!

Autumn, Birds Migration and Easter

During ring time, we chatted about what colour the Easter Bunny is, hopped around like playful little bunnies, and learned about what bunnies love to eat. The Bugs had so much fun pretending and really brought the theme to life with their excitement.

This week our theme was My Pets, and I can proudly say that this was one of the best weeks yet for the little Bugs! We had so many special visitors – from doggies all the way to snakes! It was so lovely to see some of the Bugs overcome their fears and spend quality time with animals they are not usually familiar with. They all did incredibly well!
