Activities for Wednesday, October 13, 2010

The Willow Room stayed inside due to some nearby passing storms, but by later in the morning, the storm had passed so the Maple room and the Oak room classes went outside to the playground.

We went to the gym today and played with tossing games, a rocking alligator, some tricycles, and had so much fun.
