It's a Zoo Around Here!

We've had a busy week exploring zoo animals this week!

After we made our giraffes on Monday, we added to our zoo with snakes on Tuesday!





Yesterday - Lions! Rawr!





Today we marble-painted some stripes on zebras. Once they're all done drying, we'll add a cute li'l yarn tail and add them to our zoo displays! Everyone loves marble painting!



We snacked on animal crackers today and the kiddos loved it because I told them that I WANTED them to play with their food! (though some of them were really far more interested in eating them!)





We've also been exploring the letter M. We snacked on Marshmallows...





We did some M actions... -Moving like machines...





-Moving like motorboats - (see that tongue making the motor boat sound?!)



-Marching...





-Moving like monsters...





-Acting like monkeys...





We played with and sorted some pretend Money... Which led to playing store and "buying" concert tickets - and throwing money up in the air and dancing in it as it fell just like you know you'd be doing, too, if you had a whole big pile of it like this!







And we looked at the number 8, too! We made necklaces with 8 beads that turned out super cute!
