Snow Much Fun in PS2!!

What fun is this cold weather if we don't get to play in the snow? Since we haven't had much snow, Ms. Ariel decided to bring the snow to Preschool 2. With a little baking soda and some shaving cream she was able to whip up some snow! And who doesn't love snow? I know these little one's do!

These little one's are so into the snow. Look at all of that concentration!

Cheese! Look at that big smile. Can you tell that he loved the snow?

They love being able to squish the snow between their fingers. Sensory play is so much fun!

Rub, rub, rub! Do you think their enjoying themselves? I certainly do!

Look Ms. Ariel SNOW!!! This little one had a blast. Can't you see the excitement?

This little one is showing Ms. Ariel how much snow he could get. He's making sure his snow doesn't fall off!

This little one is having snow much fun! Look at that adorable smile.

These girls are making sure they don't miss a spot while rubbing the snow on their hands and arms. I think they got it all!

PS2 had so much fun with the Arctic Sensory play! A little baking soda and some shaving cream goes a long way. It's also such an easy clean up and comes right off of the clothes.

Fitness Fanatics

With today's generation having so many different video games and TV shows to occupy their time, often fitness becomes a second thought. Here at AoFC, we make sure that fitness is involved in everyday routines by offering large gross motor (outside time) twice a day. Today our kids were able to get a demonstration from some special guest. LPG Sports Academy and Lil Sluggers came out to show the kids how fun fitness can be with a little soccer demonstration. 

Mr. K.C makes sure that PK is soccer ready. They practice balancing with the ball.

After balancing, it's time to kick! I think this was one of their favorite parts.

The girls get to practice their soccer moves together. Girl Power!

This little one is showing how good she is a being "soccer ready". Check out those balancing skills!

The boys get to work on their footwork. Keep those feet moving boys!

PS2 is waiting patiently to get a soccer balls to start their demonstration. They love when the volunteer makes silly faces! 

Finally it's time to kick. Look at those powerful kicks!

Ms. Shay helps one of our friends get set up to kick. Soccer is so much fun!

Thanks LPG and Lil Sluggers for coming out and showing us how fun fitness can be. Our kids really enjoyed the demonstration! Now let's get moving and become fitness fanatics in our everyday life!

DO YOU WANT TO BUILD A SNOWMAN??

It may not feel like winter outside, but we definitely felt a winter breeze when Olaf stopped by! Olaf came by this week to have a Frozen dance party with AoFC. He danced, gave out hugs, handshakes, and high-fives. 

Hugs all around! Pre-K makes sure they all get to hug Olaf and show him some love.

Ms. Morgan's class had a blast with Olaf. Just look at all of those smiles!

Ms. Ariel and PS2 wave hello to Olaf. They are so excited to see him. They listen to Frozen eveyday!

Ms. Christa's class had so much fun with Olaf! They wanted to make sure they got a group photo with him.

Olaf even made a trip outside to visit PS1 on the playground. He loves giving out hugs!

Someone is ready for hugs with Olaf. Olaf loves getting hugs, look how excited he is!

Olaf was sad to go. He had so much fun here with us. He even left us a snow snack!

Crafting Corner

We love to get into our crafts here at AOFC! Its a great way to see the individuality of all of our children. Each child's artwork is so unique and precious! This week the kiddos got to work on some winter crafts that are to be displayed in the enrichment area and around the building. As usual they had a balst getting to do crafts!

These two girls sure are focused! They are working so hard on their snow globes.

Looks like these kiddos are enjoying their craft time!

Look at all of these beautiful snowglobes. They are so happy with them, as they should be. They look great!

Someone's happy with how their penguin turned out! Good job!

You can't tell me this kiddo isn't excited about his penguin. Look at that face!

Concentration seems to be key in Ms. Sara and Ms. Rebekah's PS1 class. 

This little one is making sure that his penguins hat is just the way he wants it.

PS3 did a great job on these snow globes. They look fantastic around the coffee bar!

These penguins are ready to waddle all around the enrichment room! Great Job PS1!

Frosty says hi! Ms.Ariel and PS1 will make sure he stays warm with all those mittens.

Even the little one's got in on the action. Who doesn't love baby footprints?
