monday classes

Our Museum Explorers class this week focused on the farm. The Fabulous Ms Nicky introduced the kids to farm helpers, such as this corn snake, in addition to traditional farm animals (via plastic museum replicas) and the various vegetables grown on farms.




The kids meet some real live farm animals, a pair of chickens. They also made butter (which I will blog about next -- it was cool enough to deserve it's own post!).



In our munchkins class, Zoo Boy worked diligently to decorate his ocean-themed coat hook.








The finished hook -- I'm impressed with his out-of-the-box thinking, making the purple dolphin jump out of the water (up the hook post).







The Map Man helped Zoo Boy hang the hook at an appropriate height, and now Zoo Boy proudly hangs up his own jacket. Wish I'd thought of this sooner, sure beats him dropping his jacket on the stairs!
