Here are a few of the highlights of our day:
Building
Building and balancing
Making mud pies with frosting
Stirring, adding water (from their water bottles) and dirt as needed
Designing a bug race complete with a finish line
Noticing "the writing" (bug trails) on sticks
Wild strawberries blossoming
A little more water
Cleaning by the fire pit
Whittling
More bug trail "writing"
Whittling
Helping each other take a shower in the rain
Running and playing with the kindergarners
More play with Kindergartners
Back to mixing and measuring
Roasting marshmallows
Roasting marshmallows
Yum!
Digging to make ink for the ink machine
A sloth moving v-e-r-y slowly in the "rain" forest
Special cake recipe
Selecting just the right leaves to save for later
Tiny baby dragonfly under the leaf
Tiny plant just starting to grow--right in the center or dirt clump
Planting leaves
Ink machine half buried in the ground so it can't tip over
Up here she discovered she is taller than me
Trying to catch rain drops on their tongues
Kindergartners came to play with us
Scooping water from the newly formed puddles to add to the dirt mixture
The birthday cake is almost done--the sticks are the candles
We noticed bubbles running down the tree and forming a white bubble clump on the ground
Getting water off the leaves
Leaves even ended up on faces
Putting the finishing touches on another cake
Roasting marshmallows
Roasting marshmallows
Marshmallow time
A yummy way to end our day
