Snow painting // WE GOT SNOW. We never get snow. And we got SO much snow.

I did the primary colours (red, blue and yellow) so that we could mix them and make the secondary colours if we wanted l (green, purple, and orange). It was a BLAST.
Dino Habitat Invitation to Play // we love Dinos. So I set out some blue, green and black play dough, some stones, wooden cones and some small Dinos he was gifted. Anderson used his creativity to set up the world, honed his communication skills as he directed me in what to do, and grew his imagination as he played.
