Puppet shows and indoor recess

It was too chilly to go outside today so we had a great and creative time staying indoors!


The kiddos have fun with this. They most enjoy watching Mrs. Mandy put on shows, but they are starting to do shows of their own. I look forward to the interesting story lines that will be played out in this theater.


This pop out tunnel is so much fun.


Did anyone else get one of these for Christmas? My girls think it is pretty fun and it keeps them moving. (It has a camera that allows them to see themselves dance on the tv.)

P for pottery

We reviewed the letter P today...... and we all became potters! Check out the book below for a pretty book about the art of pottery making. The kids practiced their molding skills with Playdough and tested their "bowls" to see if they would hold items.



'A' made a "nake" AKA snake.

'J' made a bottle!

The ever changing Mrs. Mandy's PreK

I love being a stay at home mom. To have extra kiddos in my home is just added blessing. Things continue to change around here - students, days, hours, etc., but one thing stays the same - we have a lot of fun. Today was our first day back from the holidays and the girls were glad to see each other.

These are called WikkiStix. They are a lot of fun and are great for teaching all sorts of things.

Our Christmas Celebration

Mrs. Mandy's PreK celebrated Christmas by visiting the local nursing home and spreading a little cheer. The kids first wrapped gifts and made cards for the residents and then hand delivered them. They were so sweet and really enjoyed the reactions they got as they wished each patient a Merry Christmas. They were quick to give hugs and wanted to visit longer than we were able.

Don't worry, J. Girls don't really have cooties.

The kids brought gifts to exchange. They went home with books, candy, feathers, and more!
