The children just love talking about (and tasting) different types of apples and exploring what we can make out of apples this week! It is a delicious week! However, the BEST part of the week's theme was getting to go to Center Grove Orchard for a tour!! We are so very thankfully to have had so much parent participation to make it possible for us to get to (and from) the orchard and allow us to learn and play with the kids!
We had our own tour guide who took us on a hay rack ride, showed us the farm animals at the orchard, pretended to be the big bad wolf while the we ran in and out of the 3 Little Pigs' homes, showed us how apples are sorted, and let everyone taste different types of apples! We stuck around after the tour to jump on the huge jumping pillow (a must!) and have our picnic lunch!
Thank you again to everyone who helped! It was such a memorable day (even with all the fog)!!
