We have done a couple of Halloween art projects this week. I wish I had a picture of the children doing their footprint ghosts from Tuesday but I didn't have enough hands! It was so funny to watch the expression on the children's faces as I painted their feet with the white paint. Some giggled and others wanted to be "tough" and not laugh or wiggle. They turned out really cute.....don't know if you can tell from the picture that they are ghosts or not.....


The other art project was making a candy corn from torn paper. For morning work on Tuesday I had the children tear orange, yellow and white paper into little pieces. Then today they glued the different colors onto the paper to make their candy corn. Chase is using a pair of tweezers to pick up his white paper. This is great exercise for those fine motor skills!

[before Kylie started her project she said the blank candy corn(it was a beige color) looked like a big nose....and it really did:) They say the cutest things!]

Thank you so much for doing this blog. It is so fun to read about what happened at school that day and then being able to talk about it a little more with Chase.

If you click on the pictures they come up bigger and you can see the ghosts better. Trent LOVES preschool and wishes he could come everyday. I had to laugh imagining them have their footprints painted...love the candy corns too!
