Summertime at the girls' daycare is a lot of fun. Many themed activities, parties, fundraisers, etc., and a few of them are meant to be celebrated with families.
On June 29th, Abby's preschool class had a Hollywood party where the kids celebrated Lightning McQueen, the racecar from the movie 'Cars.' Parents/grandparents/friends were invited to enjoy the Derby Day party and watch a show put on by the kids.
The week ended with a school-wide field day on July 1st. All classes, including Kayleigh's toddler class, participated in outdoor activities such as spoon-egg races, potato sack races, ring tosses, frisbee tosses, beanbag tosses, and more.
I was really fortunate with my part-time work schedule to be able to attend both of the week's activities. It was such a treat to see the kids in such high spirits, the teachers so in sync with one another and coordinating all the kids' activities/events with so much enthusiasm and energy.
We truly feel blessed to have our kids in this daycare environment, where academics, social responsibility, and fun are cared about and treated as equally important.
I wasn't able to figure out when Kayleigh's class took their field day, but Kayleigh really enjoyed watching the older kids racing. Trying to stay out of the way, but grabbing some shade.
Abby did well in the sponge races.
And she smoked her friends in the sack races.
While the teachers cleared the tables and prepared for lunch, the kids gave an encore performance of the two dances they did for Derby Day. Maybe because it was an impromptu suggestion to perform and, as a result, perhaps they felt less pressure, all the kids really got into the dances and did a better performance than they did for Derby Day.

Abby getting ready for the three-legged race, partnered with Quinncy. While they waited their turns, each child held a "spirit stick," waving it in the air to cheer on their friends.

After all the outdoor activities were finished, the kids went inside and made red, white, and blue beaded bracelets and more spirit sticks to decorate their classroom for Independence Day. Abby, sitting with her best pal, Olivia, were all giggles and chatter during this activity.
