Spring Blog: Our First Week of School 

 Our first week back was short but oh-so-exciting! We welcomed some sweet new friends into the Playful Pups classroom, and they’re already fitting in so wonderfully. It’s the best feeling to see all of our little Pups happy, thriving, and growing every day! 

 For our first art project, we made the most adorable see-through butterflies! We used laminating paper and colorful tissue paper, tearing them into tiny pieces and sticking them together. They’re so cute that Teacher Monette just had to keep them hanging on our classroom windows for everyone to admire—because they’re way too precious to send home just yet! He-he! 🦋 

We also took a fun little trip down memory lane, refreshing our skills by practicing our colors and shapes. The Pups did an amazing job remembering them all! 

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect start to the season! 💕🌸 

Trees and Plants Blog: week 2  

This week’s theme was all about trees and plants, and the Pups were so amazed to learn about all the different kinds of trees and how they grow! 🌳 When we talked about what plants need to grow, my clever Pups already guessed I was going to say water! He-he! They were all so excited to share what they knew. 

For art, we made our own little trees by using our handprints as the tree trunks and rolling tiny tissue paper balls to create beautiful blossoms. The Pups weren’t too thrilled about rolling all those little tissue balls—ha-ha!—but the trees turned out *so* cute and colorful. 🌸 

We also had lots of fun with our FunFit sports, doing gross motor activities, and oh my, these Pups are strong! 💪 They have such steady hands and impressive coordination.  

We’re also hard at work on our Art Expo projects, and I’m *so* excited for you all to see the amazing creations we’ve been working on throughout the year! 🎨 It’s going to be pawsome! 

Happy Monday!
