.. Feb & March ..


Our Valentine's Day treats!
The girls enjoying some color time!

All smiles.. waiting to hand out our treats!
Happy Valentine's from Caty's care!

Most of our days include painting..

or working on our letters!

We did many rainbow projects for St.Patty's day!


Reading day!






 The kids each picked out a book, gave us a lil bit of the story (most made up their own),
and we enjoyed!




More crafts!




It's been a WINDY March!!


One Windy Day 

I was playing outside

One fine sunny day,

When WHOOSH! A big wind

Took my __________ away!



But when it died down,

It was calm as could be-

And that kind little breeze

Gave my __________back to me!



Movie ...

and popcorn!!

They enjoyed!!



Hope you had a HAPPY March!

"Love is in the Air"

One of our SMILEY Valentines! 
On one of the COLDEST days EVER last week ... we enjoyed popsicles!

Our first Valentine Project

Need: Paper plate, scissors, paint, paint brush
(I did the cutting!)
But they had fun painting!
We ARE silly here!
(Didn't get a picture of the finished product.. but you can see!)

Another cute Valentine!

I'm standing along stuff now!!

We also painted some Valentine pictures..




Did I ever mention they LOVE to paint?!

Need: Scissors, red/pink crayons, wax paper, piece of paper, iron

I shaved the crayons with a scissors, and the kids sprinkled the
crayon on some wax paper. Make sure you put a piece of
paper under the wax paper. I folded the wax paper
in half - and make sure you put another piece of paper
underneath the iron. (The crayon leaves an oil/waxy residue!)
Iron for about 20-30 seconds to melt the crayon!


(Paper shown here! This is key!)

Done ironing ..

More sprinkles ..

Then I cut into hearts! Don't they look great?

The kids really liked this one!

More craziness at Caty's Care! :)

Hiii!!

"Ahhh!!!"

Another painting project! (Super easy one!)

Need: Red paint, hands, paper, marker

We dunked our hands in paint ..




And TA-DA! Our Valentine hand hearts for our parents!

Another easy one!

Need: Toilet paper roll, red paint, paper
Bend the toilet paper roll into a heart shape..
And let the kids go!!


Busy at it!


With temps in the 40's..

They got bundled up and headed out!



Goodbye for now!


Happy Valentine's Day!!


Groundhog Day!

Happy Groundhog Day!!

Need: Paper, green & brown paint,
feet & toes!







I printed off this poem from Pinterest!

"Here's a little groundhog furry and brown,
He is coming up to look around,
If he sees his shadow, then down he'll go,
Then six more weeks of winter - Oh no!"

Our finished Groundhogs!!



Did he see the shadow?!
