Appleseeds Begins!

Thank you for visiting! This blog is to reflect on our weeks here together at Appleseeds Home Nursery. I am excited to see how the year unfolds with the changing of the seasons. I hope this blog gives the reader a better sense of what our day looks like and why I believe play is so crucial to child development.

Moving along with September

With September still being so warm and some of our garden waning, we've been slowly but surely pulling out what is spent, and planting some seeds for the fall and winter. The children particularly love the watering part and have no problem being watered themselves. On Thursdays, they help pick up pine cones in the front yard, and we've been noticing the light brown "squirrel snack" pine cones, which are those that have been nibbled. Just a small sign that the season is changing. Inside, the older children like to tell stories, sometimes setting up a "campfire" and tents to create a good spot for storytelling. 

Our story for a couple of weeks was "The Magic Fish" about a man who catches a fish that can grant wishes. The man keeps going back and asking for more and more things until eventually he winds up with exactly what he winds up with and lives contentedly ever after. The children made a couple of fish crafts for fun, and eventually acted out the story (with help). This week, we started our apple-picking themed circle time, which is one of my favorites as it's the first I ever learned.
