Tuesday Morning, I love Tuesday!

     We decided to make our own Play-Doh this morning during Arrival Time.  We've done this before, but it's been awhile.  We added some glitter paint to make it brighter and more festive--it will be our special Chanukah dough.
     We had some of our own ideas about the preparation:
  Evan:  Don't waste! (We were careful with the ingredients.)
  Annika:  There are two bubbles!
  Lily:  No, there are 40 bubbles!
  Sammy:  Let's add oil, no sugar.
     Then the conversation at the table changed:
  Sammy:  What day is it today?
  Morah Susan:  Tuesday.
  Evan:  I love Tuesday!
     Caleb came over with his homemade binoculars.  Evan had also made some binoculars from toilet paper rolls earlier in the morning.  Both children had looked out over Monroe Drive from the windows in the Painters' Porch.  
  Caleb:  Can I bring this home?
  Morah Susan:  Yes!  The binoculars are yours to keep.
     Back to the Play-Doh making:
  Becker:  The water is making it wetter.  We need more dry ingredients!
     We finished the dough, but what was going on behind us, in the Puppet Theater?  Yannai and Yinon were reenacting last week's tornado watch.  They were squatting, ducking down low, and calling out . . .
  Yannai, Yinon:  A storm!  A storm!

     A lot goes on the morning.  Below are some more photos from our morning, Tuesday morning.  Tuesday?  I love Tuesday!
   

Happy Chanukah!
