Summer of Exploration~Fieldtrip to Michaels

Taking a break after our walk to Michaels

 Painting the first letter of our name

 Adding a design to our burlap board

 Each of the preschooler chose their favorite animal to add to their board.

 This project turned out really cute!

The kids can't wait to add photos to their boards. It will make a neat addition to their rooms.

Visiting the Wichita Children's Theatre

The Three Little Pigs

 Anxiously awaiting the performance

 The preschoolers LOVED the Big Bad Wold (He was a vegetarian!)

We found a AWESOME park that was a block away from the theatre. The kids has so much fun playing. The day couldn't have been more perfect and the weather was fabulous!

The kids were pooped after watching the play and playing outdoors. Needless to say, they all took a great nap! The kids can't wait to visit the theatre again next "Summer of Exploration".

*****Thanks to our photographer Tyler who did an amazing job of snapping some fun pics of the kiddos*****
