Today ended up being all about snow. It started at PreK where Cooper's class had a pretend snow day. They ice skated around the halls with wax paper skates, wadded up their wax paper and had a snowball fight, and then covered all of the tables with shaving cream snow to play in.
After school it was time to drive to Noah's science class. While Noah was in his class, Cooper and I were invited to go to a Little Hands class for the younger siblings. Guess what the topic was? Snowflakes! We made a snowflake refrigerator frame, cut out snowflakes, and made glitter snowflakes. We also learned about Wilson Bentley and saw his snowflake photographs. At the end we watched the teacher make a bucket of artificial snow from a polymer that looks and feels like real snow. The kids got to take the bucket outside in the rain and throw the snow around.
It was a great, *snow*-filled day!
What a darling photo! It sounds like y'all had a really fun filled day. Were these classes at a homeschool coop or something similar? I'd love to find something like that in my area.
