Preschool Fun!!



Colin is going to a small preschool class on Wednesday mornings. It is for 8 weeks and the class only last for 45 minutes. It is a great way to get him adjusted to a structured school program that is not so overwhelming. He has never been in a structured day care setting--only the relaxed/structured babysitting setting of Aunt Tina's house.

It is amazing how many activities this little preschool can fit into a 45-minute time period. It starts off with "free play" or an arts and craft project. Colin prefers playing with the Thomas train set as opposed to the "artsy" stuff, but he has done a couple projects (or should I say "I" have completed a few projects with Colin's help)!

After crafts they have circle time with a few songs, a book being read and child participation--or mom's participation depending what kind of mood Colin is in. :)

Music and dancing come next--Colin loves to shake his maraca!

Then it is Colin's favorite part--the parachute......he loves shaking it, going under it and mostly loves the "ride" on it!

Bubble time, then getting your hands stamped for being a good boy in preschool rounds out the 45 minutes.....and we are tired (okay, its more like "I" am tired)!

Is it nap time yet???
