Toddler Group Graduation

Shane graduated from Toddler Group today. Of course, he really doesn't know what that means. He is starting to get that soon he'll go to a new school (preschool), but still not sure about Mommy not going with him. Toddler Group has been a wonderful experience for both of us over the last two years. There is now a gap between Shane and Baby #2, so we won't be going next year, but I hope when Baby #2 is close to a year old I'll be able to take that one to Toddler Group as well. Shane learned so many great skills that will prepare him for preschool and beyond.

Shane going down the big slide with some friends. He usually only likes to go down this when no one else is on it.

Scissors were part of art last week. He LOVES cutting with scissors and worked really hard that morning cutting for a long time.

Making a giraffe at one of the art tables. He enjoys the art every week and loves painting!

Playdough is another favorite thing to do every week. This year he doesn't eat it any more which is wonderful.

Getting ready for circle time.

Here the kids are down small for the song Jack In The Box. A class favorite. Shane is the only one that gets into a "downward dog" pose though.

Snack time, also a big hit of the day.

Bubbles come after snack time.

Playing with Thomas in the car area. Or I should say more like allowing Thomas to be near him as Shane plays.
