Happy Easter


We are getting ready for Easter here at playgroup. Tuesday is egg painting day which we are really looking forward to but we thought we'd warm-up with paper and watercolors. The girls glued and painted while I read a cute pop-up book about a hatching chick. 
















Saint Patrick's Day!


We completed two projects for St. Patrick's Day. First, we made a visor using pre-made cutouts and some glitter stickers. The other project was a pot of gold wind sock. We made those with strips of tissue paper streamers, and black and gold construction paper. At the last minute one of the moms showed off her paper cutting skills and made shamrocks for everyone. I also left some Celtic shamrock designs on the table for the girls to color when they came into the room. Sometimes they like to head straight to the table and I like to have a little something waiting for them. 


Our visors! We finished them a class ahead of time so they would be dry for our party. 

Rainbow streamers and gold coins glued. 

The finished product.
