CCC: Pictures of Lillian and Simon

This was Simon's last week at CCC. It was great for Lillian to have him there, but it'll be much better for him to be in Kindergarten with kids his own age. He needs more challenge to his days!

Hi Alan and Emily, 

We have has such a great two weeks at CCC. We've been so busy enjoying our last few days of water play before the Fall. We have continued to work on our fine motor skills with different activities like playdough and string beads. We are getting so much better with our yoga poses and sometimes do yoga more than once a week! Cooking class has been great as we made sun butter and jelly sandwiches this week and fruit kabobs last week. We also made a turtle for an art project this week using paper plates, glue and green construction paper. We love learning and playing at CCC!

Enjoy!

Grandpa Bart Visit August 13, 2016

Simon and Grandpa Bart went to a baseball game and generally we had a blast. We didn't take many pictures because we were having so much fun!

Simon's Trying the Monkey Bars

I challenged Simon to practice on the monkey bars this fall and try to get across them by Christmas. He took the challenge quite seriously and I think he'll get it much sooner than Christmas if he keeps trying so hard. Here's his attempt at the end of the first day trying.

Blueberry picking

We went blueberry picking at Stateline Blueberries this weekend. It was a long drive there (1.5hrs), but a really fun time. We got to run and play and picnic there. We didn't feel like we picked many berries (about 4.5 pounds) at the place, but there were a LOT of berries when we got home. Blueberry pancakes on Sunday!

Hi Emily and Alan,

We have had such a busy two weeks here at CCC. We've been working hard on our math skills and fine motor skills lately. We enjoyed working with different puzzles, color sorting and making patterns, tracing our names and writing about our favorites parts of summer. We also worked with cotton balls and used tweezers to pick them up and did a really cool cotton ball painting. We also made an ice cream cone art project. We've been getting much better with our yoga classes and being able to stretch our limbs and bend in tricky positions. Last week, we enjoyed making rice krispy treats for cooking class, and this week we made dirt using chocolate pudding, whipped cream and oreos. We also made moon sand this week out of flour and baby oil, that was really fun to squish and mold! We have such a great time at CCC!

Enjoy!
