I love the artwork that Abigail gets to participate in at daycare. The Goddard School teachers are pretty creative in the various art projects designed for the kids, which are always related to the weekly themes. A couple of weeks ago, the theme was Transportation. All the younger infants got to "paint" a bus and their own car. The teachers would dip their fingers in paint and allow them to freely apply color to construction cutouts of cars and buses. The babies always have a blast playing with paint (sometimes it's just whipped cream) and all the teachers worry about is keeping the paint out of the babies' mouths.

After the cars were painted, the teachers took a picture of each baby's face and stuck it to the car, showing the babies driving or riding.

The cars and buses ended up as part of a traffic scene created for display just outside of Room 1. These photos are very blurry since I tried to take them while holding a bouncing Abigail, but you get the idea!


Remember earlier this month when Abby helped Ms. Ester paint the school bus project with all the Room 1 infant pictures displayed in the school lobby? I'm guessing she is now an expert at painting transportation vehicles!!
