GERMANY & Autumn Fun!
Tuesday we will celebrate by playing a few German children's games and having Black Forest cake.
Thursday there will be an invitation to make German cardstock gingerbread hearts.
We will experiment with some sausage and pretzel making, leaf printing and exploring some pictures a good friend of mine has shared from her recent trip to Germany.
On October 7, we will begin to study some beautiful castles in Germany for the last two weeks of our study of Germany.
The children have been very focused on playing Lego, getting back into the swing of school and adjusting to their new schedules. I don't like to make after school too structured, they really do need this down time and time to socialize with their friends. All activities are set out as invitations, except when we have a special event planned.
Over the next few weeks there will be serval Fall art activities set out as well. These will include coffee filter leaves & apple tree printing.
Hope everyone is enjoying your Fall so far! Don't forget to take a peak at our beautiful Harvest moon. The Autumn Equinox is today, September 22 and the moon was really breathtaking last night!
My family visited the Green Pig corn maze a couple weeks ago, I recommend this fun activity if you have some time on the weekend. They have a few special events planned in October; flashlight corn maze (6-9pm Friday & Saturdays). They also have pumpkin blasting, this was a fun activity too, we all had a try!
Gourmet corn in the Cobb is back at the dieppe market!! It doesn't last long and well worth the effort to get there on a Saturday! 2 minutes to boil and it is delicious!!!
