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.

SNOW!!

We finally had some snow, and some time to enjoy it. The children loved testing out the "road conditions" with the cars and bicycles. The fared about as well as Atlanta motorists. We had a bit of snow cream when the snow was fresh, and warmed up with hot cocoa when we had enough. It was a week that had inside cozy time with baking cookies and bread, and outside time in the snow that thoroughly chilled our noses and toes! It was a nice way to finish out the month of January. 

It is difficult for our bodies to adjust to such up and down weather, but the children still seem to enjoy the outdoor time, and often ask to eat outside as long as their fingers can handle being un-gloved while eating. Building a fire in the fire pit helped keep children warm on the coldest of days; gathering so many sticks and pine cones had them warmed up before the fire began! Fire is an interesting element to introduce to such a young age, it is the one element that they are not allowed to handle, but nonetheless they experience it in a deep way. They were able to feel it's warmth and yet were very inclined to keep their distance!
