Learning about water.

We started our new theme today, The Water Cycle, and Zara soaked it right up!
We used the online story about Drippy the Raindrop to spark a conversation, then reinforced with coloring pages about evaporation and condensation for our water cycle poster.

We also did a quick experiment, observing boiling water to see evaporation taking place (vapor/steam rising) and saw condensation on the pan lid.


After naptime we explored liquid watercolors! This was a ton of fun. I think Zara worked on various watercolor projects for over an hour!


Zoey enjoyed gnawing on a paintbrush!

Amber - Once again, your amazing dedication as a mommy astounds me. Way to go! Zara is going to be one of the smartest, most well-rounded, most curious people on the planet. All thanks to you.
