Each year the daycare participates in a national program,
Week of the Young Child. The teachers plan a crazy week filled with fun extra curricular activities and this year was no different. On Monday the theme was Bugs!!!
So the day started with a face painter coming to paint all the kids up as bugs. Cameron, who was wearing her favorite butterfly jacket and t-shirt, had a butterfly painted on her arm. She proudly showed it off to everyone. Later that day they put on their bug aprons and played bug games and painted different bugs.
Tuesday was outdoor day. There was a petting zoo that came to the daycare with lots of miniture animals. There were bunnies, mini-chickens and ducks, baby goats, and pigs. The kids also played in tents and with various outdoor gear.
Wednesday was construction day. The day started with a puppet show and then the kids dressed in their construction gear and got tours of various construction vehicles including a forklift, and bulldozer. Thursday was rainforest day and the class got a visit from some tropical birds who performed on bicycles and showed off their tricks. Cameron really liked the birds.
By Friday, the kids were worn out. The theme for Friday was the city by the bay where they explored different water games and played in the jumpy house. This was by far the highlight for all the classrooms and we know this because, it was also teacher appreciation and the parents gave the teachers a two hour break so mom and dad got to play with all the kids from the other classrooms. But all they wanted to talk about was the Jumpy House!!!
