We've had several sessions of soccer. Tobias is slowly learning to pay attention through the whole class, especially if it means he can ride on the parachute. Genevieve painted some pumpkin art and played with pumpkin slime. We colored and assembled a cardboard haunted house and a small foam princess castle. She made a web of friends in art class and set up her birthday aquarium.
We went to Lambtown festival, or as Genevieve called it Unicorn festival. We had a nice walk there, rode a train, rode some ponies, went to a petting zoo, painted a pumpkin, helped Grandmum pick out some yarn, and rocked out to some music.
We enjoyed gymnastics, the park, storytimes, dance and music class. The author came to one storytime, and after we were able to explore a career fair. The library also had a speaker about bats, who brought some along for the kids to see. Our friends met us at a pumpkin patch. We also started the fall session of zoo classes. Genevieve feed the giraffes, met some animals and made art around the habitat themes. They talked about animals and skills needed to survive in the Savannah and swamps. We also played at Fairy Tale Town.
When we weren't in class, we spent most of our time inside to avoid the smoke from the wild fires. We talked about the fires and made some pictures to show people we were thinking of them. We read about and did some science experiments. We started a book about the first explorers to possibly reach America and read about Sukkot and Diwali. We colored, played with slime, played some PBS Kids games and workbook pages. Genevieve started her Star lab and tried out some new puzzles and games. Some of her new puzzles are word building. She also got a great geography game (Scrambled States of America) and The Memory Palace by Peaceable Kingdom.
She helped decorate for her princess party and made some pizza for everyone. The girls had fun dressing up and making lots of different art - wings, jewelry boxes and princesses.
