This week we introduced the letter "P" and had all sorts of fun with it. First the kids finger painted with chocolate pudding....yes, we have done this before but when you are three or four you just can't get enough of this activity! Smear, lick, smear, lick.....and so on! They were making mud puddles for their "P"igs! Garrett is carefully painting his piggy that he is going to put in his pudding puddle! We also took out our pink and purple markers and colored construction paper "P's". PPP!

When we were done painting we went on a "P"icnic and only ate the food that started with the letter "P". The kiddos were great at making the"p" letter sound and finding the "p" foods in the basket. As you can see from the picture, these "p" foods were not real but have no fear.......we did manage to work in a real "p" food.....

"Pigs in a blanket"........they rolled up their sleeves, washed their hands, and put on their chef hats! They made their own snack. Some of the pigs were wrapped a little more neatly than others but they all tasted the same! Yum! They ate yummy "p"eaches too!

After all of that hard work they enjoyed some well deserved play time! They had so much fun playing restaurant. They each had a job to do and took turns with the different roles. In the above picture you can see the paper and pen by Charlie. He was the waiter and scribbled out Garrett's order. Garrett was the customer and Katie was a server. Harrison was there too, he was the cashier! Cha-Ching!

Charlie is taking his job very seriously from the looks of this picture. I'm not sure what he is saying but he has cash in his hands! This in no time for monkey business!
