Ms. Melissa's Crazy Kids! : Frog Week

Frog Week

May 28, 2013 to May 31, 2013

Tuesday

Tuesday was Amia’s first day at Eco Baby Childcare :o) what a big day for our little Amia. She is alert and very assertive. I love to see her explore new ground and make friends.

Wallach loved our visitor, Amia’s Grandma. He enjoyed sitting on her lap and snuggling.

Wednesday

Amia out with a runny noseL

Suzianne liked finger painting her toad green and enjoyed our new songs about frogs.

Wallach was very interested in the frog cycle; he kept pointing and the frog eggs and telling Ms. Melissa “eggee”.

He also enjoyed creating the paper bag frog puppet and coloring the F is for frog coloring sheet.

Thursday

On Thursday we made our paper mache frog bank. Suzianne liked ripping the paper into pieces and placing each piece into the paper mache mix, without getting her hands messy of course :o) Amia really enjoyed holding the paper and moving it from side to side, she was also very helpful stirring. Wallach assisted in measuring out our ingredients and stirring.

Friday

Friday the kids really enjoyed our new play structure. Suzianne loves going down the slide, while Wallach enjoys crawling through the tunnels.

Amia enjoyed coloring the outside walls with chalk. She also is very fond of water and sand.

Wallach also learned all about circles with nifty frog circle art.

Songs

F is for Frog

Sung to the tune of Farmer in the Dell

The frog lives in the pond,
His tongue is oh so long.
It reaches high to catch a fly,
And then he sings this song.
Ribbit, Ribbit, ribbit
Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit
Hi, ho just watch him go
His tongue is oh so long!

F is for Five Little Speckled Frogs

Five little speckled frogs,
Sat on a speckled log,
Eating the most delicious bugs.
Yum! Yum!
One jumped into the pool,
Where it was nice and cool,
Then there were four green speckled frogs.
Glub! Glub!
