I happened to look over the fence from the toddler yard into one of our 3-5 yards the other day. What I saw was delightful; so much so, that I quickly gathered a few of my little's, opened the gate and not only invited ourselves but joined right in!
One of my co-workers was hosting a tea party outside in the yard.
The day was a typical early spring day, cloudy, gray and a little cool, but that didn't deter them one bit. In fact, maybe it made that warm apple cinnamon tea taste just a little sweeter.
The colorful tray was set up on a beautiful old stump at the end of the yard. The children who were interested sat around enjoying tea from sweet, child sized mugs.
I love activities like this for children in daycare. I feel it is loving, homey and family like.
It gives an experience that they will be uplifted and edified by. The gathering around a common purpose, sharing, and being included.
Hearts, souls and tummy's nourished.
Thank you Gay Gay for who you are and what you do.
So sweet! A lovely idea and great pictures :)
