Preschool Fun

There have been quite a few fun activities in Haleigh's class over the past few weeks. They had a week dedicated to books and reading called LOL (Love of Literature) week which included things like character dress-up day and pajama day. They invited parents to come in and spend some time reading together with the kids.

Annaliese was a mermaid and Haleigh was Dora the Explorer.

Pajama Day!

Reading stories with Mallory and Auntie Kelsey

For Valentine's Day, they had a fun party at school. I had to work and wasn't able to make it but I'm sure they did some fun crafts and handed out Valentines to one another. Haleigh was very excited about all the Valentine's she received from her friends!

Last week, we went on a field trip to the fire station. They did a great job showing the kids the ambulance and the fire engine as well as explaining what a firefighter does. They got all dressed up in their gear and emphasized how they were there to help and not someone to be scared of! Because of the timing of the field trip, I picked up Annaliese early from school and she came along!

Paying close attention to everything FireFighter Tim had to say! (Haleigh is in the grey shirt with pink sleeves)

There were a few loud noises...Annaliese borrowed Senora Polinder's earmuffs!

It's been fun watching Haleigh learn and grow as the year has progressed. She loves going to school and every once in awhile we hear her use a few Spanish words!
