At last, the rain has disappeared and these sweet smiles have reappeared! After so many gloomy days, we've gotten a little break and the sunshine has allowed us to get moovin' and groovin' outside again. We absolutely love doing indoor gross motor activities, but we all know that these kiddos just adore their outside time (and it's no secret that their teachers do too!) Outside time is incredibly beneficial for children. Not only does it help the healthy development of muscle strength and coordination, but it also helps children develop self-confidence! Being outside offers the children a whole new perspective on the world and what it looks like. There are so many different ways to get the blood flowing while playing outside. Some of our favorite activities include climbing and sliding, tossing the balls back and fourth, trying to catch bubbles being blown, and chasing our teachers all around the playground! Its an incredible thing to see children playing together while outside, and learning how to problem solve together! We are super grateful that the skies decided to clear up and the cold weather is giving us a break! Check out just some of the sweetness that occurs here on our playgrounds!
These sweet Preschool kiddos just LOVE playing with Mr. Jacob during outside time! Mr. Jacob holds the ball up high so that his friends have to use their legs to jump up as high as they can and touch the ball!
There's nothing sweeter than hugs from your BFF on the playground! These two are always playing together and giving one another the biggest of hugs!
Playground time is for the boys! These little friends are having a blast playing "Duck, Duck, Goose!" This is a great way to get those legs moving and blood flowing! Plus, these friendships.... how adorable are they?
Another favorite outdoor activity is definitely bike riding! We have different bikes/trikes/riding toys for every age group, and they all love being on them! Its a really cool experience to watch a little learn to ride all on their own!
Can we just look at this sweetness!? This sweet girl stopped her playing to give us the most precious smile! Thank goodness for this weather!
Another one of our favorite things to witness, is siblings seeing one another on the playground through the fence! We love how excited they all get to see each other! Siblings are the sweetest!
