You are my Sunshine!

Hanging out in the Sunshine!

Enjoying a game of hop-scotch!

Coloring our Spring pictures..

Another day outdoors!

Super easy craft!

Cousins relaxin'!

That's all for now - Enjoy! 

Earth Day!

The boys are always busy building!

Earth day!
Need: Paper plates, paint, brushes, string, paper

Painting our world!

We hung out while the blue (world) dried .. then needed to
paint the green (land)! (Literally! :))

We were excited for paint on our  hands ..

Printed these off and the kids filled them out.

Don't they look great?!

Our finished result!

Puzzle time!

Sooooo happy! 

Winter storm + Colored rice = BLAST!

Colored Rice:
-1 1/2 cups white rice
-Tblsp vinegar
- few drops of food coloring

Add ingredients into a bowl - have the kids shake away!
Spread it out on a cookie sheet (I used wax paper on top) and
then bake at 175 degrees for 10 minutes!
(Thanks Trista for the idea!)

Shake, shake, shake..

Some of our colors! (Each color was about a bag of rice!)

Ta-da! (About 5 bags worth here!)

They found some objects to play with!
-Spoons, cups, cows, horses, tractors, wagons, etc!

Honestly - they played with this stuff ALL MORNING!
I will admit no one even attempted eating it!
And also my floor is a DISASTER .. but
well worth it!

The 3 girls I had today .. lined up chairs and watched Greg snow-blow!
The school age kids got out early (10 am) so they joined in on our rice fun too!
(The lighting in the pic was bad..)

To cute!


Happy Spring!

April showers (snow storms!) .. Bring May flowers!

While the snow kept us inside.. it didn't slow us down..

"ARRRR Matey's!" -- We were pirates!

We have really enjoyed these 2 kiddos while a fellow
daycare provider was on maternity leave!

Girl time!! :)

"April showers ... Bring May flowers!"

We can pretend it's Spring, right? :) 

Easter at Caty's Care!

We made these cute lil bunny magnet picture frames!
(Got super busy and didn't snap pictures!)

We also painted Easter eggs!

Boys busy at it!

The older kids put together the Easter story sticker scene with Jesus and the tomb. We
also decorated Easter buckets and filled them with candy! I
ordered our Easter crafts off of www.orientaltrading.com. Great site! 

Hope you had a great Easter!
