Daycare Olympic Games

With summer coming to an end, we decided to have a day of special events...Daycare Olympics, it is! The kids all had a great time! They all divided into 2 teams and were ready to compete!


We started out with sack races.





Some of the little kids needed a little bit of help from the big kids.




Next was the egg on the spoon race...

The goal of this one was to put the egg on the spoon and carry it from the start line to the other end, around the cone and back without dropping it! (The little kids got a serving spoon- the big kids got a teaspoon!)










Next up was water in the cup race...

Each team got a 1/4 c. measuring cup. They had to dip into their bucket at the start line and carry it to their team's jug and the other end. The first team to fill their jug wins!!












Then we played a couple games of soccer!





The cheerleaders did a great job!

TREEmendous Park

This was our big field trip this summer since there was too many of us for one vehicle. We went to TREEmendous Park in St. Peter. We left mid morning. The kids had a blast running around and playing. Then we all sat down and had a picnic lunch together. The kids got to play for a few more minutes before it was time to pack up and go back for a nap. This is definitely a great park with lots of things to do for all ages!
































Jasmin was having trouble getting up onto the swing so AJ, Arin & Hayden tried to help her!


But it didn't work so I lifted her up.

It was so peaceful that Ryker fell asleep! :)
