Silos

 Continuing with Mother Goose Time's farm theme, was a day of silos, or as Elli likes to call them, silophones.  The girls played fill up the silo.  They each got a silo card and if they spun the letter C they got to put a piece of corn in it.  We also played this where the had to get the letters H and then B.  This was a good game to practise letter recognition.

For today's invitation to create the girls were given blue and red paper,  a souffle cup, and crayons.  They had a silo picture to look at for inspiration and used the materials to make whatever they wanted.

The girls colored silo pictures to add to their farm murals.

The girls had a lot of fun moving cardboard tubes around on the wall and then dropping corn into them.  The goal was to make a chute that would drop the corn into the pan at the end.  

The girls also played cow emotions.  They took turns rolling the included cube and acting like a cow feeling scared, angry, sad, etc.  

We finished up by reading Big Red Barn.
