Drip Art

Pre-K Two used eye droppers to make some really cool drip art!  It was a great learning experience for Water Works week.  The dropped colored water at the top of their paper, then tilted the paper up to see all the pretty drip designs it made.

 Using the eye droppers to apply the paint.

 Watching it drip down!

 We have such good artists here.

They were so proud of their artwork.

Fruit Infused Water Popsicles

For Water Works week we enjoyed fruit infused water Popsicle!  They were so delicious and healthy for us.  It was the perfect treat on a hot summer day.


Kayak Fun!

For Water Works week we wanted to explore all different items that sink or float.  A BIG item that floats in the water is a kayak.  Thank you to Emerson's mom for bringing her AWESOME kayak for the kids to explore.  They even got to wear a life jacket and play with the oar.  It was so much fun pretending we were riding in the water! 


























Painting with Water!

Water Works week was in full swing and we did something totally crazy...painting with water!  The kids used brushes and rollers to make beautiful paintings on the concrete.  They dried in minutes so then they got to create a whole new picture!  It was such an easy activity that the kids absolutely loved.  It worked both their gross and fine motor skills.  Plus it let their imaginations run wild with creativity!

 She used the roller to write her name!


 Busy at work!

 They thought the door needed some water.





 Painting with water was so much fun!



 He liked the way the water felt dripping on his hand.




 Even our teachers wanted to play.


Ready to paint!

Working at the Bike Wash!

For Water Works week we got our water good and soapy to wash our bikes.  After our hard workers got done with them they were sparkling like new!

 Hard at work!

 Teamwork makes the dream work!

Things got pretty soapy!
