Luki Lab Visits Kinderpond

 My new friends at Luki Lab and Tryazon sent me these games to try.  

Y'all the adults can't stop laughing at the Beaver game!!!!

You know I am here with the FROGS!!!!!!!!!

Everything you need to play is in the game box.

You see how the left-hand side of the brown handle???

That's the log that rolls!!!!!

This is the bottom of the game with the legs to elevate the 

surface so the log can roll. 

Come back next week when I share the video of the Go Go Ghost game!

Both of these games are going in my Game Library at school.

It is for my parents to try out new games :) 

A blog post about that coming soon!!

Dollar Tree Trip January Edition

 So I picked up these board games- they are very thin boxes.

Check over here for what I did with the ice cube trays.

Here are some felt hearts- they will stick nicely to my flannel board.

The cupcakes can go with the Pete the Cat book with cupcakes.

Finally a trip to Target!

I finally hopped over to Target!!! Shhhhhh! Don't tell my hubby!  I was checking out and the cash register started "loading" like it got a message from my hubby, to not let me shop lol

Those were the shelves, but this is what I got:

These will go into our calm down area, because who wouldn't like to smoosh poop?!?!

Here are some fabric/felt play sets:

Ice cream set

 

Apron and oven mit

a tools set and bench

Cooktop and tools

More tools

Garden set

body organs

This will go into our science center when we do all about our bodies

Puppet boards

Forest Animals, Princess, Dinosaurs

For these, I tell a story to introduce the puppets and then the kids make up their own stories.

I will post a different day about the games and what's inside.

I use these in my transportation unit.  We have races using these and yardsticks.

Just in time for Seuss!

Stampers, pencil pouch, pencils, stickers

Seuss decorations

Photo props

Carpet Games (I was thinking indoor recess)

I didn't get these though :)

Can't wait to try these out!

robot and community helpers

I was thinking of adding these to my water table....

When we do our color study

 When we do this for our plants/gardening unit.

These are for read around the room and now Target has a prank section currently

but these fingers are for pointers in reading. 

Here are some large puzzles...in bags!!!!!!!!!

Yes there are two construction ones... whoops! That will be returned :)

I knew my son had a loose tooth.... I didn't have this pillow in time lol

Now we're safe :)

I grabbed these because Dollar Tree didn't carry pink ones.

More felt pieces,

I hand out the pieces to the students and tell a story.

Felt board stories

Space

Fairy Tales

Transportation

Outdoor 

Here are some cards, yes I grabbed two sets,

one for me and one for my teaching bestie!

We will tell our story verbally and her first graders will be able to write them down.
