October and our days







we are still getting a grasp on our entire day of rhythm. I can definitely tell the days when we are on. When transitions are sung, when my energy is high, we have wonderful circle adventures. The fairies are busy getting ready for fall. Flying with geese heading south, gathering apples, paddling across lakes with mama swan, chopping, sawing and hauling wood with the woodcutters, spinning with the autumn leaves and bounding with squirrels. We have also added a mellow calender time with our fall cloth calender. simple days of t he week, the date and weather for the day. Creative play is back to block building, coloring, playing boat, play dough and stores are getting more intense with this week being Old Troll on Big Mountain. We are loving finger crocheting, water color painting, and now are about to start some more crafts..just as soon as I plan ahead for a trip to the craft store. Our outdoor adventures are filled with woods, friends, building, sawing, soccer playing and simply swinging and animal chores. And we are slicing apples for applesauce, cooking soups and baking!
