Spring 2018 Preschool Storytime: Week Seven 4-17-18

Well I sure picked a great day to cover the topic of seasons!  Combine that with our regular weather activity we do at the beginning of storytime, and man my kiddos were confused!  It may be spring in Ohio according to the calendar, but in the last couple of days, (DAYS, not months) we've had hot, cold, rain, tornadoes, floods, snow, and blizzards.  When we played our seasons game where we sorted pictures into seasons, we created our own category "super silly season" where we put things like snowflakes and flowers because apparently winter and spring have decided to play tricks on us.  We also decided that Olaf from Frozen is absolutely correct to be excited about the season of summer because man, so we miss it!  It was a mixed up, silly, wild, super fun day in preschool storytime today.
