Today we tasted a variety of apples. We also made applesauce. The children helped by measuring and counting the ingredients and they helped me use the apple peeler/corer/slicer gadget. You will find the recipe in your child's journal. We didn't chop our apples up too fine which I think gave it a good texture. The boys and I thought that the apple sauce was delicious!
We used the flannel board to tell a story today. We learned about the Star that found a home inside of the apple. Get your children to share the story with you. It's one of my favorite flannel board activities.
We had a wonderful time during music and movement today. Ms. Laura (Andrew's mom & my sister) took some photos of us on our train ride today:-) We learned a new finger play/rhyme. I've posted it below.
We will be on break for the next two Wednesdays. I will see you back in a few weeks. Check back this weekend for photos from our field trip.

Andrew told his Daddy all about show and tell. He said that he told his friends his tractor and bobcat were special :-) He's looking forward to next time, and I've told him maybe we can take something from his Disney trip!
