Happy & Healthy

This week we learned all about keeping our bodies healthy, with particular emphasis on keeping germs away.  We learned all about germs can make us sick and the proper way to prevent them from being shared with our friends.  Nearly a box of tissues later, the children seemed to get the hang of how to properly blow their nose and sneeze into a tissue.  We also discussed keeping our teeth healthy and strong.  Hopefully they are being fabulous teeth brushers for you!

 Gideon drawing a picture of germs.  The children's version of germs were so creative!
 Building, building building with their favorite straw builders.
 Painting with toothpaste & toothbrushes- so fun!  It was great to have Thomas' cousin Morgan come to preschool with us.  The girls especially loved having another princess in the group.

 We did a few science experiments with hard boiled eggs.  One egg was soaked in milk and the other in vinegar.  They learned that milk and other dairy food strengthen our teeth, while the one soaked in vinegar got quite mushy.
 I soaked one egg in soda and boy was it tough to get that one clean.

Playtime!
