Eat Your Fruits and Veggies Day in Tiny Tots!

Today was one awesome packed day in the Tiny Tots room. We started off the day with circle time and snack, as usual, but this time snack was yummy, juicy watermelon, and we saved all the black seeds. We had a great time in Music & Movement with Devora Leah, sitting, standing, and dancing! Then we took the black seeds and made our own watermelons to take home with them and construction paper. After that we played a silly game called Fruit Basket. Finally our clay models from yesterday were dry, so we painted them in bright colors. Before lunch, we got to wash and chop vegetables all by ourselves, and then stick them on sticks for a colorful vegetable rainbow! We learned about the different kinds of vegetables, like celery and tomatoes and colorful peppers. After lunch, we got one more treat -- we cut up fruit to make silly clown faces on our plates with strawberries, bananas, apricots, and kiwis...what a yummy day!
