We really dig D. As in really, we got to dig in dirt for the letter D review day. It was not disgusting, dangerous or delicious, just really really dirty.
We had a second sensory table available with diggers and dumpers in corn and seeds, and the group that played at that table created a huge road block, and then destroyed it.
Some friends were more interested in the veggie garden, where our cabbages have gone to flower. We tasted the flowers - they are edible - and they were deliciously sweet. As one child said, "Not sweet like a strawberry," but still quite nice.
We read several books - if you know me, you are not surprised! - including
Changes by Marjorie N. Allen, and
Bumblebee, Bumblebee, Do You Know Me? by Anne Rockwell. Both books included daffodils, which we can see blooming in the neighborhood. I found a fun craft about daffodils on
