Finnish Education

This made me think of Waldorf education.  Interesting to consider parallels.

Beautiful day!

We've been doing lots of planting of beautiful flowers!  This kind of blurry photo is of a hibiscus.  Today efforts are being made to learn a hebrew song from a new to our preschool girl, fresh from Israel, who speaks only hebrew!  Super cool.  Here's my attempt at the lyrics...

Newmanewmay-a   Newmanewmay-a
lo-mavin-melo-ekay 
lohek-bacla thasosilitay
asta-gee-dukee-fakay-a
hapismonday

Her mother says ot means something to the effect of..."I don't understand a word you say"!  How appropriate!

Also...a spider and praying mantis were spotted!

New Drinking Fountain Bubbler!

For the longest time we've had a bubbler that was too hard for little hands to work.  We installed a push top type and now we can't keep the little ones away!  Don't they know we're in a drought! Remember...we encourage the bringing of water bottles and have filtered water available...but this is the backup for quick drinks during summer heat. Be prepared for some wet kids at pickup!
