Hello Everyone,
 April has been such a fun filled month, the before-school children have enjoyed making springtime crafts such as our "Hello Kitty" bulletin board and hand print flower garden. They also enjoyed making tissue paper rain drops and umbrellas. Sand Art has been a big hit this month too. The children made seashell necklaces, flower, butterfly, and bird key chains, and animal pictures all out of sand!!! We had fun making slime as well. The children have also been enjoying the group games Bingo, Mum, and 7-up. After-school children helped decorate the room for spring. They made kites, tissue paper butterflies, chicks, butterfly wreaths, and bunnies. They loved our "Springtime Celebration" where they searched for eggs with prizes inside, played "pin the cotton tale on the bunny"; carrot limbo, plastic egg toss, bunny hop, and had an egg spoon race. The children have been enjoying lots of outside time. They love playing organized games with the staff such as: man from Mars, run the bases, kickball, and basketball. They used sidewalk chalk to play hopscotch and four squares. The children love making up iron bead magnets, painting sun catchers, filling vases with sand art, and playing with Play-Doh. We also have lots of fun playing wax museum, musical squares, freeze dance, and Simon Says as a group. We have had a great month and we are looking forward to a wonderful May!!!
