Summer Ideas

I'm sure many of you may already have summer plans, but here are some fresh ideas for summer fun!! 








(We used pbskids.org for computer games this year in preschool and the children really enjoyed it!!)

Excellent resource for handwriting tools - free printables for parents!!


Enjoy your summer. I will try to post things on the blog, but it may not be as frequent.

Tanganyika!!

Thankfully it was only cold with no rain for Zoo day. 
Great ending to a fantastic year!!

Here are quite a few pictures I took.....

The cheetah is hiding in the grass. He lifted his tail every once in awhile.
What a great turn out!!!

Running around and jumping off of this rock seemed to be
just as enjoyable as seeing the animals. 
 THE HC shirt pics 
(sorry, I didn't catch everyone!)



The giraffes are so amazing and grande!

Beautiful animal!!!
Animals have a mind of their own.
The zoo keeper was holding this piece of lettuce trying
to lure this guy out and then he finally just threw it on the ground
and walked away. The tortoise immediately came out and
promptly munched it all down the hatch!

Thanks for a great Zoo day and year!
Have a most wonderful summer!!
