October 27, 2011: God Parts the Red Sea... God's Awesome Power!

Today our Little Seedlings learned about how God parted the Red Sea so His people could escape from captivity in Egypt and how God led them with a cloud by day and fire by night.

As and introduction to the Ten Commandments in a couple of weeks, we've introduced the children to our playschool rules: Be Kind, Share & Use Walking Feet. It's been great to see how the kids are following them!

October 20, 2011: Playschool At the Veurink Farm

Our Little Seedlings were again blessed to be able to visit the Veurink's farm! After helping to collect eggs and a visit with the ponies (and the baby pony!), horses, chickens, bunnies and pigs, Mr. Fritz gave us all a fabulous ride through their beautiful river valley.

We shared snacks over coffee, hot apple cider and juice.

As always, the children LOVED playing on the teeter-totter and in the huge sandbox complete with a toy barn, tractors, diggers and trucks!

To end our morning, Farmer Fritz and Alissa gave the children rides on one of the Veurink's horses. Some were fearful, some were somewhat apprehensive but went anyway (and then wanted to go again!), some were THRILLED!

Thank you SO much for again sharing your farm with us Mr. Fritz & Mrs. Alice Marie! You are a blessing to us mothers and grandmothers and our children and grandchildren.
