HAPPY EASTER!!!

We started off the week with a short EASTER MOVIE, about how the EASTER BUNNY saved EASTER!!!
Treasure Box Day! Everyone got to pick a "WALKING EASTER EGGS" if they had 4 stickers!

Outdoor Play: 
We had fun BUNNY RACES...where we had to HOP across the grass!

On Wednesday we decorated our very own EASTER BASKETS with fun EASTER STICKERS!


Then we went outside for an EGG HUNT!!!

Showing off what they found!
Game: Bunny Hop with a BALLOON between their knees!
It started inside, but we had to move it outside because they were such WILD HOPPERS;)
