Our First Week of Daycare

We got our first student enrolled in Pajama Mamma Daycare & Preschool! He’s an adorable 2 1/2 year old little boy named Alex. Last week was our first week with him and we had a complete blast!

Our first weeks theme was St. Patrick’s Day. Each day during Circle time we learn songs about our theme.

Each Day we played an awesome game! We played St. Patty’s BINGO with skittles. We played St. Patty’s I Spy, and we had a St. Patty’s sensory bin with green water and full of shiny gold coins! 

Each Day we had Craft Time. We painted rainbows that we turned into twirlers with pots of gold at the end. We painted finger print rainbows and added glitter to make our pot of gold sparkly! And we painted these adorable leprechauns with puffy paint courtesy of Love My Big Happy Family

One day we had a special themed snack! The kids went crazy over these Shamrock Floats! 

Each day we have “Lesson Learning” Time. This is the time of day that is more structured learning like school. Of course we still want it to be fun! This week we counted lucky marshmallow, practiced our cutting with scissors (or line tracing for the younger kids) and separated our colored cereal into colors of the rainbow... or at least some of us did! 

And of course we had our party Day! We sent home a note telling the kids to bring their green shirts and a leprechaun snuck in during quiet time and brought us hats & gold coins! 

We have a color time each day too, we had a special cute shamrock coloring page on our party day And we used all different kinds of green writing utensils! 

We had a fabulous first week! We learned lots, had yummy snacks and lunches, we played and got creative! We danced our hearts out and were just children! The way it should be! Can’t wait to see what next week has in store!
