Our Work

I haven't posted the kids at work for a while and they have been busy!!

Here are some friends working on November calendars!

The kids love making insets. 

You can see the calendar in this picture too.  The kids color the top of the calendar and they trace the numbers.  On the holidays of the month they get to put a sticker that goes along with that holiday.

This little girl is making a triangle inset.

This little girl turned her circle inset into the earth.

Here is a child working on his colors.  He did the color matching and now he's writing the colors.

Look how good the kids are at handwashing!

The kid's scissor skills are getting really good!  This little girl is working on a horse cutting and pasting.

Matching:  the kids are even matching the words now!! 

We are learning to button our own aprons!

Handwashing

The kids are learning how to wash their hands.  Sometimes I think the kids pick up the routine of handwashing faster than the adults!  (: 

Here are the steps to washing their hands. 
1.  First the child puts on their apron.
2.  Next they take the white pitcher, fill it with water from the red water bucket and pour it into their bowl. 
3.  The kids dip their hands in the water, clean their hands with the bar of soap and rinse their hands in the bowl.
4.  The kids get a paper towel from the basket, dry their hands and throw the paper towel in the garbage.
                                                       Here is a little girl drying her hands.

5.  Next the child pours the water from the bowl into the bucket. 

Here is one friend pouring her water into the bucket.

6.  The child carries the bucket of water over to the blue "dirty" water bucket and pours it in.

7.  Next the child takes the bucket back to their table and dries the bucket, bowl and table with a towel. 

Here is one child wiping out the bucket.

8.  Last, they will take off their apron and hang it up. 

This can seem like a lengthy and complicated process but the kids pick it up quickly.  It's amazing how quick and neatly they can handwash.
