Welcome to the Dragonfly team skeleton competition! This has been the most intriguing of competitions in the Olympics for our group. I think it's the danger factor. I always enjoy watching our light table and the ever evolving tower building. Claire loves her Ellie and their pretend make-up time!

Valentine's Day box decorating is very serious work! "It is my favorite holiday, after the bunny one!" -Gabriella We found this beautiful book about color in our neighbors Little Free Library. We had to take it home to check it out. Then Deb had this awesome idea to look at it with light in the background. Gorgeous.
A few of the children have tried to teach me about a show called Bluey. When I heard our children's librarians here in Verona were going to have a Bluey story time I knew we needed to be a part of it. They even had craft bags I picked up so we could have Bluey and Bingo headbands as we participated. We are so lucky to have such great librarians!
We tried on some medals today and learned that at the Olympics you can earn a gold, silver or bronze.
These three were so excited to explore our fountain that we got working again this morning. It had pretty warm water in it so they were saying "hot!" They also figured out there is a hole in the top leaf where the water comes out so they would plug it with their fingers to stop the water and make it go again. If they banged on the leaves, little water drops would splash on us. If we were quiet, we could hear the tinkle of the water as it poured from leaf to leaf. So much to learn in such a small little fountain of water.
The amazing warm temperature today had the children thinking! I was asked if it is almost summer. Not yet, but today we will enjoy the warmth and sunshine!

Shannon Davis- Family Child Care provider"Family child care is not babysitting. It's not comparable to any child care center. It's families, in relationships with a professional care provider in an environment that becomes, by design, a second home and a whole bunch of people partnering, trusting, caring and educating each other."
