Fall Leaves Fall

To celebrate the beginning of this fall season, we read "Let It Fall" by Maryann Cocca-Leffler. What a great book! Our craft turned into 2 different ones... First, we took real leaves, painted them with watercolors and stamped them onto paper. Second we painted a coffee filter with fall colored watercolors, dried them, cut them into a leaf shape and finished it off by hole-punching each one to hang. Check out our work:)

Fall Trees - handprints Mommy and Me Class

Today's CCAA Mommy and Me class at the Exton Mall...  read "This Tree Counts!" by Alison Formento, sang the "Lion Hunt" and made wonderful handprint trees. We used beautiful fall colored wallpaper to trace our arm and hand to make the base of the tree. Then we used yellow, orange and red paint to make handprint fall leaves. Check out our beautiful trees!

Apple Trees! Mommy and Me fun

Mommy and Me School Buses

Some of our Mommy and Me friends have started Kindergarten this week or will start Tuesday, so we made one of their favorite parts of school... School Buses!!! We read two books about school buses and sang the wheels on the bus. Our craft was to paint a bus shaped piece of newspaper yellow, and glue on construction paper windows and wheels. Then we stamped on the red stop sign, white word "stop" and white wheel centers. And to complete our look we pasted it all on a piece of purple paper (yellow's opposite on the color wheel) and use the blow dryer to take it home nice and dry:) They turned out fantastic!!
