Is it really? I woke up this morning to freezing temperatures and a mix of snow and sleet covering the ground! I dreamed last night about sprouting flowers and green grass, children playing in the back yard with the warm sun shining down. I guess the reality of March is true in like a lion out like a lamb....well I am ready for the little lambs to be born.
In the up coming months I have a lot planned. We have a couple field trips to some local farms and once again hope to visit Mrs. Tammy's Farm in Vermont! The baby lambs and chicks are being born so there should be plenty of activity on the farms. We will also start our life cycle activities by planting seeds to hopefully fill our garden with fresh vegetables this year.
A reminder that with Spring comes mud season, so please be sure your child has a complete change of clothing in his/her cubby. A lot of laundering will be done during this season due to happy times in the back yard making mud pies. I am hoping to set up a mud pie kitchen again this year for imaginative play. We will be increasing our outdoor play time which I am sure will make the kids very happy!
Happy Spring, I wish you many warm days ahead.
