Peppermint and Gingerbread Playdough!

I made peppermint and gingerbread play-dough for the kids!  With all the sick bugs going around, I decided to make bags for the kids to have their own.  This way they could take some home and play!

Before playing I had the kids open up an early daycare Christmas gift.  I bought all the Lakeshore brand uppercase and lowercase alphabet and numbers play-dough stamps!  These are so much fun to play with!

The kids had so much fun playing and pretending to make Christmas cookies!

Christmas Oranment Photos...

A lot of sick bugs have made their way around this month, so I wasn't able to capture all of the kids here.  I am hoping January will be a healthier month for all!

I captured some really cute smiles!

A fun afternoon game of table tennis!

Christmas Stamps...

Just doing free art with Christmas and alphabet stamps...

Painting Christmas trees with pine needles!

We painted Christmas trees with small branches cut from a pine tree in the yard!  

It was messy, but it sparked our senses and made it even more fun!

Frozen Yogurt Pops!

We made our own frozen yogurt pops as part of our Winter Wonderland curriculum unit. 

They were super yummy!
