StrongStart goes to the Community Forest!
Our Duncan Cran StrongStart Field trip to the Community Forest was a success! Â Children and adults had the opportunity to go on a nature walk through the forest, stop along the way to explore the plants,
Butterflies!
This week the butterflies emerged from their chrysalis! Â We were lucky to have them in the StrongStart/Preschool room to observe for a couple days. Â Today we were invited to join the kindergarten classes in releasing the butterflies outside to find a new home!

Puffy Paint
A couple weeks ago when it snowed again…I put out puffy paint and various items to stick on the picture. Â A few days later a few adults and children were asking what it was and if they could try.
I read the book “Click Clack Moo, Cows That Type”, Â by Doreen Cronin. Illustrated by Betsy Lewin . Â The book tells the story of Farmer Brown’s cows, who find an old typewriter in the barn and proceed to write letters to Farmer Brown,Where will they take it…
So in honour of the Spring and Mud I thought I’d put out brown paint as the mud and animals. Â I thought it would be fun to make muddy foot prints! Â Well, it started out as animal foot prints and then the end result was unexpected yet beautiful.
