Maren's preschool had mom's night tonight. There are 10 kids in her class, 5 boys and 5 girls. Split just down the center. They all seemed to get along pretty well, too. It was cute, because at the very beginning they sat down on the circle rug like they would in the morning and all the girls all huddled together. Maren talks about all the kids in her class and names all of the little girls, so it was nice to put a name with a face.
The teacher went through their daily routine. They talk about the day of the week and each week they work on a new letter. They showed us different songs that they sing and they had us dance the waltz with them. Then the Mrs. Joanne explained how they have centers set up. Each center has a different activity for the kids. They have a play kitchen, 2 different art stations, and a station with different games. It seems like Maren always chooses to do the art station with the amount of art she brings home each day. She also showed me this clown game she likes to play where she has to balance circle blocks on a wobbly clown without knocking it down. She did really well at stacking them before they would topple off.
After playing with the wobbly clown we went and drew portraits of each other. She is getting really good at drawing. At the very beginning they all gave us crowns that they had made. Hers had the most perfectly made hearts with glitter. She also wrote her full name across it too.
I really enjoyed watching how much fun Maren has at her preschool. It is a good feeling watching her run into her class with excitement.
