Birthday Cards (February 27, 2014)

It was a very special day! It was Lillya's, the director of the daycare program, birthday so we mainly focused on making birthday cards for her since she's a very hard working person.  We were outside playing for about thirty minutes, we played with the jump rope and sang songs. The reasons why I enjoy children is because I remember many memories from my childhood. They make me feel like a little kid again. I noticed that the girls tend to follow me more than the boys, but there are times where the boys want to play soccer with me.
 After, we washed our hands and sat in groups. Ms. Ann passed out a bright pink piece of paper that said "Happy birthday Lillya" for the children to copy. All of them were really happy and excited to make the card since they appreciate her a lot! There was a variety of paper and colors to choose from, I learned that children tend to be more excited and enjoy doing work with cool supplies. It stimulates their mind. Also, working as a group motivates them to work together and share supplies.We worked on the cards for about forty minutes, for those who finished early were allowed to use the computers to play educational games or play board games.
 I'm in charge of staying with the kids that tend work slower than everyone else. Kids who usually work slower is because they get distracted very easily so its hard for them to focus and actually get work done. I usually spend extra twenty minutes working with them. I enjoy having one on one time with my kids because I get to know them and understand what works for them.
