Meow, Meow, Meow

Andrew had the Alphabet Box at his house this week. He brought it filled with letter "E" items. Some things that start with the letter E are: elephant, engine, egg and Easter bunny.

Our theme today was about Pets. We had Rufus the dog come and visit us today.
The children really seemed to enjoy Rufus. We learned that Rufus would really like to find a cat to chase and play with.
We read The Three Little Kittens and then the children helped retell the story on the flannel board. We also read Have you Seen my Cat? and Millions of Cats. What fun.
For art, we created Stain Glass Pets. The children had cats cut out from wax paper and stuck tissue paper on the cat. Once dry, the cat can be hung in the window, for a stain glass pet. (Sometimes the glue was extra sticky.)

We pretended to be cats for part of our gross motor time. We stretched, pounced, pretended to eat and lap up milk, and then we pretended to take a cat bath.
