Working At Play

 

We work.  We play.  And they don't realize they are learning.

Building a 'humongous' plank takes teamwork.

It amazes me how they just pitch right in and help.

Our version of Jenga.

Gather mud is always a good option.

Gabe doing his best to catch the bubbles.

We even work in teams in the schoolroom.

But sometimes you need to work alone so you can really concentrate.

And at the end of the day after school and naps, we go back at it just exactly where we left off.

Shannon, here are the muddy girls.

You might ask how did they get so muddy?  They were messing with the boys and the boys retaliated by throwing a bucket of mud on them.  And they weren't really too happy about it.  But in the end, they thought it was funny and I think they learned a valuable lesson.  And so did the boys if you know what I mean.

I always have loved a good chalked surface.

Well, maybe not this surface.

Interesting find.  I think we have some kind of eggs in the fish tank.
