Sensory Week and Splash Pad

This week's play theme was sensory. The kids had a lot of fun creating moon sand, playing in water beads, and making sensory bags. The moon sand was made with 8 cups of flour and 1 cup of baby oil. Super easy to make at home. 

We also had two field trips that went along with the sensory theme. Monday and Tuesday we had a lot of fun at Laser Quest. The kids have mentioned it was their favorite field trip so far. We didn't take a lot of pictures though, it was pitch black. Wednesday and Thursday we went to the splash pad at Port Royal Park. Even though it rained on Thursday, we still got a couple hours of play in.





Splash Pad fun!

The Power of Play Summer TASK


This week starts our Summer program in Task. All of the kids are super excited to see their friends from last Summer. This year's theme is "The Power of Play". We will be learning through play, and each week will have a different theme. 

We went on a field trip to Goofballs in Franklin this week, and we had a blast. The kids were able to go bowling, ride the bumper cars, and go through a laser maze. 

We also got to break open some geodes. The kids loved watching Ms. Khrysten and Mrs. Desi hit them with a hammer. After they were broken open, the kids got to examine the inside with a magnifying glass.
