November 21st

Snow, Snow, Snow!! 

Our first really snowy day at Wren's Nest! 
Samantha brought in games made by a friend of hers. We had fun playing her beautiful board game (kind of like "Sorry!") and using her giant puzzle pieces. We took off our shoes and socks so that we could feel all of the different textures on the puzzle pieces. Bumpy, smooth, prickly, soft, scratchy...
We were also busy sewing our bird mail boxes for our Winter Tea invitations. 

Today was an especially exciting day to check the weather! 

We noticed all of the snow which we learned is also called Precipitation (our word of the day) and set our our cup to measure how much fell while we played. 

And off to the hill! We were so happy that so many friends brought sleds and shovels. Yippee!!

Rock & Roll! 





The beautiful snowy views from Common Ground. 


After hours of snowy fun we warmed up inside with stories and finishing some of our projects. 

When we went back out at the end of the day, we checked our measuring cup for precipitation. We got a full inch of snow during Wren's Nest!

And it continued to fall...pray for more!!
