Wow! What an incredible Victoria Day weekend we had. There was no shortage of sun and definitely no shortage of happy faces out and about the city. People bustling about choosing their colorful flower selections for gardens and planters, children riding their bikes and new moms and dads out pushing their babies in strollers. A definite 10 where perfect weekend weather is concerned.
With this gorgeous spring weather comes our new theme, Fun with Frogs. The arts, crafts, learning centres and songs related to this theme are absolutely adorable. The children are going to have so much fun with this theme that they won't have any idea they are learning in the process.
This is a very science based theme as each classroom will be learning about the development and life cycle of frogs. They will have "eyes" and "hands" on experience as they get to care for and watch their very own classroom tadpoles grow into adorable little water frogs. Parents, please feel free to ask your child what they have learned each day about frogs and, if their class tadpoles have changed from day to day. We have magnifying glasses set up at our science areas for the children to get a closer look at how the tadpoles develop rear legs and lose their tails.
Miss Dawn snuck into the centre on Victoria Day to place a tadpole tank in each classroom. We can't wait to see the children's reactions on Tuesday morning as they arrive.
We hope you enjoy this theme as much as we know the children will.
Team Hoppers Findlay Creek
