Guided by our anchor story, Summer Song, children explored a summer sensory experience through hands-on art, movement, and play. They created abstract summer collages, experimented with salt paintin that opened into firework designs, and built frogs and crickets using simple STEM materials. Scarves moved through music and familiar summer songs, and a cozy tent space offered quiet moments of storytelling and rest. (Yes, Pandy was in there reading!) The session offered a warm exploration of summer learning through creativity and imagination.
Our sessions center around an anchor storybook.
Summer collages were so creative. The focus was on green on green on green, with spots of other colors. Children learned "abstract" and this was a process art activity.

Frogs out of toilet paper rolls that could actually jump were created!
Crickets, like the one we read about in The Very Quiet Cricket were constructed.
Salt painting created exploding fireworks!
Summer bingo with prizes was so exciting!
