Preschool Part 1: Fall/Winter

I mentioned graduation, but I couldn't call myself a true mommy blogger if I didn't give you the play-by-play of my child's preschool career, now, could I?

Well, never you fear!
Here we go!

The fun began with Back to School Night in August (above). Lucy entered Miss Midge's two room, basement preschool with big eyes and a shy smile. She left with a bright new backpack, and a big cookie. Starting off on the right foot, as they say.

She went confidently and excitedly to preschool pretty much everyday thereafter.  And who can blame her? Sign me up for a curriculum of art and letters and snack time and songs!

For the first several months, Wiz Kidz were encouraged to dress according to a color of the day. Lucy embraced this opportunity with all her heart. "Head-to-toe" was the goal.

But dressing wasn't the only delight...
Book orders! (Oh, the nostalgia!)

The snack bucket...

(Which we generally forgot about until the morning of. Good thing for our little creamery!)

All About Me day...

The backyard swing...

(Lucy LOVED Miss Midge's tree swing.

And we all loved the fall apples from Miss Midge's backyard apple trees. Yum.)

Rug-time!

Yes, rain or shine...

(or snow!)

Preschool was a good time.
And I haven't even mentioned holiday fun:

Halloween

Why we were always late to school in October:

Favorite after school activity:

(playing in Cannon Center lockers)

Thanksgiving

Christmas

Caroling to the older neighbors on Miss Midge's street:

On the last day of class before Christmas, each Wiz Kid brought a book to exchange with a classmate.

Fun tradition, says me.

And that takes us to winter break!
Preschool Part 2 coming...someday.
If you're lucky! =)
