Summer Camp Tuesday 7/2

 Hi Preschool A Families! 

We had an awesome day today! We played inside for a few minutes but quickly got outside on the playground before it got too hot! Some kids started collecting "dinosaur fossils" for sale. While we were outside, a few kids had soccer camp. We came inside to eat snack when they returned and then had Bible Time. Our Bible topic for this week is the Fruits of the Spirit from Galatians 5:22-23: Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. First, we discussed that we know an apple tree is healthy when it is growing apples and that apples are not only tasty, but also heathy for our bodies. These "fruits" of the Spirit aren't actual fruits, but as we grow with Jesus we will become more like Him. We will start to practice these qualities more to show our faith in Him has grown to be big, strong, and healthy like an apple tree growing apples. Practicing love, joy, peace, patience, and all of the other fruits of the Spirit feel good and are good for us- they are healthy for our faith! After Bible Time, we made our craft. We use real apples to stamp paint on our papers. The kids had lots of fun with this. They played in the classroom while I cleaned up the craft supplies and then we headed off into the gym! After that, it was time for lunch, wind-down, and nap time. 

It was another successful day of camp!

God's Blessings,

Summer Camp Monday 7/15

 Hi Preschool A Families! I hope you all had a great weekend! Today was a great day at camp. We played inside until everyone was here for the day and then we went out to the playground before it got too hot outside. While we were outside, a few kids went to gymnastics camp. When they came back we ate snack inside and sat down for Bible story time. We discussed Moses parting the Red Sea which is our story for the week. We talked about how powerful God is and that He is a miracle worker. Then we played in the classroom and I got out some play-dough on the back table. We went to the commons to get the last of the jitters out and spun around on the scooter seats, which we have never been able to use before. The kids were having a blast! When we were done in the commons we had a few minutes to spare to play in the classroom so I played a minion dance party video and a shark hunt interactive video for those who didn't want to play in the classroom. After going to lunch, a special guest c...

Summer Camp Tuesday 7/9

 Hi Preschool A Families!  We had a rainy, inside camp day, but we still had so much fun! The kiddos played in the classroom this morning making magic wands, tunnels, coloring, pretend firework shows, and *very intensely* playing with balloons! Some of our friends went to soccer camp and we waited for them to return to eat snack before we went to the Commons to run our energy out with Preschool B! We got to use funny bird puppets that make squawking noises and bouncing balls that we don't normally get to use so the kids were very excited. When we came back to the room, we talked about our Bible story for the week- Jesus calms the storm. We talked about how trusting God may be scary at times but He will always protect us like in our story. We watched the Bible video and then got to make our craft that spins from stormy weather to sunny weather. After craft, we played in our room for a bit longer and then went to lunch!  It was another successful day of camp! TOMORROW! We ...

  What a fun last day of Summer Camp! The kids were able to do all of their favorite things today, from playing outside to playing Sharks and Minnows in the gym. We had a blast! Our special treat for the last day of Summer Camp was not only Kona Ice, but also a visit from Spider-Man! The kids loved getting a chance to talk to him, and it was hard when we had to say goodbye! :) It was a joy spending a week with your kids and getting to know them. I hope they had lots of fun, because I know I did! I pray that you all have a great rest of your Summer! In Christ, Jesse Muehler
