Friends Preschool

Doesn't she look grown up?
Rebecca has been giddy about what we have dubbed "Friends Preschool". We meet Fridays along with four other friends who also have three year olds. Whichever mom is hostessing gets to be the teacher, another mom helps with babysitting any of the teacher's littler ones, & the rest of us get the morning off! Quite a deal. The kids LOVE it, too. We were blest to be able to do it with Andrew when he was three & Rebecca has been anticipating it for a long time!
Last week Kim taught them about the five senses at the park. Talking with Rebecca beforehand made me think that she really had her work cut out for her!

Me: What do you do with your eyes?
Rebecca: Close them.
Me: What do your hands help you to do?
Rebecca: Squeeeeeeeeeze!
Me: What do you do with your nose?
Rebecca: Kleenex.

Well, she came home knowing all five senses & how we use them, distinguishing soft/smooth/sticky/etc., eating peanut butter play-dough (We used to called it Kindergarten candy in Sr. Bernice's class. Yummy.) , & grinning ear to ear. Great work, Kim!
