Snapshot of Preschool

Last year we were lucky enough to find a fantactic preschool for Haydn to attend 3 days a week while I work. I just finally looked at the Blog that one of his teachers set up this fall tesseraarts.blogspot.com and was delighted to see a lot of great pictures. A few of the fun ones of Haydn are posted here for you to enjoy too.

Haydn's teacher even caught Naomi literally red-handed devouring the bowl of watermelon at the Valentine's day party. I can't say how many slices disappeared into her belly; she was focused.
They end the school week with a fun dance class where they can learn fun new ways to get those wiggles out. Haydn loves the obstacle courses she sets up at the end of class.

The highlight of Haydn's week is the Quiet Heart Wilderness class where a naturalist comes and talks with them about wildlife, habitats, and nature. They investigate real bones, fur, horns, and often enjoy a walk in the 'Magical Forest' in the park behind the school to look at nature first-hand. You can see him standing up to get as close to the teacher as possible.

Halloween was a day full of spooky flashlight activities. You can see Haydn letting out his inner-'Wild Thing' in honor of the special day.

A puddle is all it takes to make his imagination run wild. Toy trucks, a puddle, and friends to share it with is heaven.

Hot glue! Haydn's favorite way to create these days is with the low temperature hot glue guns they have at school. He goes to town glueing all kinds of things together - see one of his favorite creations at the top of this post. These are affectionately called 'proj-dacks'.

A joint hot glue creation. I think it was a space ship.
