Felt / Magnet Board:


No, we didn't get to the magnet board - things were a little chaotic and it was more or less glanced over at the time. BUT - that doesn't mean we can't highlight it here! I present to you:

Five Little Seeds!!
 Five little seeds,
Five little seeds.
Three will make flowers,
And two will make weeds.

Under the leaves,
And under the snow,
Five little seeds are
Waiting to grow.

Out comes the sun,
Down comes a shower.
And up come the three,
Pretty pink flowers.

Out comes the sun,
That every plant needs,
And up come two,
Funny old weeds.

Craft:

We made a Spiral Vine Craft - from Oriental Trading. It's basically made from a green paper plate cut into a spiral and then sticky-backed foam leaves and flowers were used to decorate it. The sticky foam means no glue!! The kids really enjoyed making this one and the parents appreciated how easy it was.
