This week at AOHC, our theme was “Let’s Build!” and build we did! From tiny towers to big ideas, our little architects were busy designing, stacking, gluing, and imagining all week long!!
On Monday - we built a giant cardboard fort together in the yard! The children worked side-by-side to design the structure and create their own imaginative hideaway. It quickly turned into a favorite hangout spot, and our friends had a ton of fun crawling through tunnels, peeking out of windows, and pretending it was everything from a castle to a clubhouse.
On Tuesday- We turned tools into paintbrushes! The children used toy hammers, screwdrivers, and wrenches to stamp and swirl paint onto paper. It was a fun, messy, and creative way to explore textures and colors.
On Wednesday- Our second to last water day of the year! Splash time! We had a blast running through sprinklers, playing with water toys, and even building little water ramps with blocks and tubes. Perfect way to cool off and stay active!
On Thursday- Hard hats on! Our preschoolers searched for hidden letters around a pretend construction site using toy tools. Toddlers joined in with a shape and color hunt! The toddlers also got to use expo markers to find the letters hidden on the laminated sheets! It was a great mix of learning and play!
On Friday- We ended the week with a fun story time featuring Pete the Cat and his big construction project. After the book, the children shared their favorite parts of the story. So much imagination!
