Whine & Cheese

I have no idea what happened, but I had four very whiny kids today. The goofy thing is, the things they were getting upset about were things that happen every day that usually don't bother them. At one point, two of the kids were telling another kid who was crying, that she was crying like a baby. Not two minutes later, one of those kids was crying about something. It must have been something in the water! It was like that all day. By the end of the day, I was ready to cry!

Nonetheless, we still got a lot accomplished. I put a masking tape line on the floor and had the kids try different things (e.g. walking on the line, hopping on one foot, doing a somersault) to work on balance and coordination. They did like that! We also did a project where I put food coloring in bubble solution and had them blow bubbles onto a white sheet of paper. It made for some cool spatter paint designs! We finished out the day by making friendship bracelets and dancing the chicken dance.

Let's just hope the whines are gone by tomorrow!
