Surprise Baby Shower for Ms. Aneika!

Today, LFLF had to say a temporary goodbye to one of our favourite ladies! Ms. Aneika is in need of some much deserved 'me' time.  Not only will Class 5 miss this lady, all of our friends from LFLF will miss her dearly.  First time mommy, we know her new little person will be coming home to a wonderful family.  Thanks for all the great memories, learning opportunities and giant smiles.  Always welcome back, Ms. Aneika.  Please bring her for a visit whenever you feel it's safe. 
Lots of love, and endless congratulations!
Xo!!! :)

Class 1 - Primary Paint Discovery

Class 1 started our morning with colourful art activity :)
First, we identified the shape of a circle. Then, we mixed paint with shaving cream and used the top of our containers to stamp out some circles.  Firstly, we started with primary colours, blue, red and yellow.  Then, something interesting started to happen!  After our circles started to overlap, we noticed that when certain colours mixed, they made something called secondary colours.  Our most favourable discovery being that, blue and red make purple! So cool! :)

Today, Class 4 had tons of fun hopping and jumping and crawling through our very own obstacle course. Our first mission was to jump over a very tall tower built of foam blocks. After that we did five jumping jacks on the Orange may! Then we crawled through our rainbow tunnel and once we crawled through sucessfully we gave miss Alesha a huge high five. We then crawled through the sky blue tunnel and finally hopped onto the green carpet!
