Today was Jacob's snack day at school. His teachers call the boys "snack king" when it is their turn to bring snacks (hence the title of the blog post).
Jacob really likes to paint, though he won't do it at school very often. When we paint at home, he will paint for a very long time before stopping. This week, they were talking about apples, so the paper was shaped like an apple (fun, right?).
The proud Picasso shows off his work.
Julia and I stayed for the entire morning (much to Jacob's delight). Julia loves being in Jacob's classroom. Today, she found a tomato sauce can that she carried around with her. Why would she do that you ask? Well, if you were to look inside her can, you'd see a tomato sauce kitty (you know, like teacup chihuahua).
The sensory table is the best part for the kids. Julia has a hard time not stopping and playing here when we drop brother off at school. Frequently it is filled with sand or legumes. Today, since they were talking about apples, it was filled with apples and water. You can't see it in the pictures but there was one ginormous apple in there. I would swear that it was nearly 5 inches across.
Speaking of large fruits, look at this zucchini that one of Jacob's classmates brought in to school today!
Of course, with a squash that big, you have to read "Mrs. McNosh and the Great Big Squash!"
Julia found the books and was right at home.
At circle time, Jacob gets to sit on the ladybug rug. After all, his class is called the Ladybugs (notice Julia is still holding her can kitty?).
At the end of circle time, the snack king gets to choose who gets to wash their hands for snack first.
Mmmmm. Snack time! Today we brought fruit leathers and muffins.
