Nurse Visit

Last week the First Year Preschoolers 

had a visit from Nurse Ali. 
So much was  learned about 
being heart healthy!

Nurse Ali gave us heart stickers
 and asked us to place them
 where we think our hearts are.

Nurse Ali brought along a bike pump

 to teach us how hearts pump blood

 through our bodies!

We learned how our heart works
 with the rest of our body.

We talked about what foods are
and are not good for our heart.

Healthy Teeth

Having good strong and healthy 

teeth is very important to all

 of the Preschoolers.

We talked about brushing skills, healthy

 food  and visiting a dentist this week.

We even tried brushing at school on

 a special tooth that we made messy.

Brushing is hard work!!

Beach Party

We took a break from the cold

weather and hit the beach!

In the Preschool Bonus Room we
had our February cooking week. 

We made heart snacks for Valentine's Day.

We also made lollipop butterflies
using hearts for the special day.

Wednesday we created owls.

Snowflakes were made out of
pretzels and marshmallows.

For dental health month we made mouths using
 apples for the lips and marshmallows for the teeth.
