It was a cold start to the week, but we didn't even notice in our warm and cozy pjs! We built HQ's (headquarters) out of blocks and helped take care of Virginia with Dominique, had a dance party and performed acrobatics with Dawn, painted paper bags with Holly, and spray painted artwork with Elsa. We also had a tea party, played family, dug skunk holes, tested our balancing skills, made dirt pies and cakes, and created pizzas and vampirina houses out of magnatiles. Our yummy snack was pancakes, bananas, and berries. Listed below are some of the Vermont Early Learning Standards highlighted in our play today. And, please enjoy some of the moments we captured during our day! Love & Light, Dawn VELS: - Domain 1.
