Airport Dramatic Play: Making the Airplane!

Our Vacation Bible School theme this year was The Incredible Race. I was the leader of the 3-4 year olds, so I decided to turn our room into one giant airport. The first thing I did was make a giant airplane prop for them to play in and especially to take photos in. It took me about a whole day to make, but it was totally, absolutely worth it!  It was about 11 feet long and about 5 feet high.

The boys made these super cute jellyfish crafts! I just LOVE how they turned out, and they were pretty easy to make, too. They'd be awesome for classrooms, ocean units, parties, etc. I'll probably even do them for my preschool church group.

Easter Sensory Bin

My kids love sensory bins! I don't make a TON of them, but I do enjoy putting them together for the holidays throughout the year, and then I love watching them discover the things I've put in them when I randomly leave them out for them to find. This one is a springy Easter themed one, and it's been a big hit so far!

Fitness Friday: Why you should try a yoga strap

I have PCOS and I'm trying to stay fit. I love doing yoga but I need some yoga straps to help me get into some of those poses.

Ohhhh Cocoa Puff... He likes going to preschool so much that on his days home, he gets bored and always wants to do stuff with MAMA! Most of the time that's okay, but sometimes, Mama needs to get things done. So, I let him go with a bunch of art supplies and told him to have fun while he crafted and I sat next to him, working.
