Continuing the snow and cold exploration.

With the snow, came ice!

The sensory table is full of pre-made icebergs and polar animals. This was a favorite for everyone and the next day we even colored the water with food coloring, blue!

Our igloo house, made from a rescued appliance box.

Painting huskies with toothbrushes. The brushes gave a fur like texture.

The good old chestnut!!! Liquid water color frozen with craft sticks.

Contemplating my place.

I am in awe at the massive amount of bloggers out there with wonderful and informative websites!!! There is so much good work happening in the name of authentic play and the values of childhood. I am very new at this and am pondering where I can possibly fit into this network of creative, resourceful and informed peers.

My hope is to use this blog as a learning tool to measure my growth in the field of early childhood education and as a parent of two wonderful and sweet boys. I endeavor to start some of these fabulous and therapeutic crafts such as needle felting, painting and creating. I hope to make new friends and connections to feed my curiosity to learn new things. Let's hope everyone starts to read.
