Adventures In WES Preschool!

  Duck update!: One hatched today! yay finally! The preschoolers watched him or her kick and crack their egg around lunch time for about 20 minutes. They were so fascinated with the eggs moving and changing right before their eyes! We were so excited to wake up from nap and find this little guy/girl stumbling around! :)       Another on the way! Be sure to check the incubator for possibly two ducklings tomorrow morning!  

  Welcome Mrs. Kim!! Mrs. Kim started with us on Monday and has fit right into our preschool family! We are so excited to have her join us during this great time of year,Welcome!!   We added 2 new chicks to our growing flock of 5! We are all very eager for the arrival of the ducks, which should come either tomorrow or Thursday! :) The preschoolers have given names to all the chickens, they are Watcher, Brownie, Daffodil, Snowball, and lastly Scaredy Cat.   Yesterday and today were ABSOLUTELY gorgeous out! The preschoolers (and teachers) have enjoyed going out with no snow-pants or coats on! We have been playing in the mud, the water, and on the swings! Keep this weather coming! *Please check your preschoolers extra clothing box to see if they need pants, socks, shirts.* Peek-a-boo!! Mud Cake!

We still have a little more of a wait for the ducks to arrive (probably mid week next week!) but we are being great sports about waiting and being careful with the incubator and the eggs! This week we have also been playing with our pretend chickens and eggs in our dramatic play area too.
