"When Is Bongo Finally Going To Eat Again?" by Christopher


TODAY'S ACTIVITY
Sonya led the squirrels in a playdough making excercise. This being an activity they
complete every 3-4 weeks, we are able to ask more of them in terms of counting and measuring ingredients and sequence of steps involved. Most of the children can remember the order pretty well. We are working on the ratios of ingredients at present. They are so excited about the color - an incredibly bright red.

TODAY'S STORY
Why Do You Cry? Not a Sob Story, by Kate Klise and M. Sarah Klise. A young rabbit is about tp turn five years of age. He decides to be a "big boy" and never cry. He decides to only invite those who do not cry to his party. One by one, from youngest to eldest, his friends all explain that they cannot come, because they still cry, though for many different reasons. Mama Rabbit states the same, citing that she cries because he is growing up so fast and she is so proud of him that she cries. When he asks why, she tells him that it is because we all have feelings. He changes his mind and invites everyone. Nobody cries except for his mother, out of joy.
