Book Review: “Pinkalicious and the Pink Drink” by Victoria Kann
A couple of weeks ago we visited another independent book store. I have said that I always purchase something every time I go to one and this time was no different.

Preschool Class Themes: Winter-Part One
I am getting sooo excited for my upcoming classes! I have lined up all of my themes for the next 16 weeks, starting in January. I thought that I would share some of the winter-themed ideas that I am planning to do to help promote early learning for my preschoolers.
First, I wanted to find some winter-themed songs. Here are a few:
Snow is Falling all Around
(Sung To: “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star”)
Snow is falling all around,
Falling, falling, to the ground.
I catch snowflakes on my tongue.
Building snowmen is such fun.
Snow is falling all around
Falling, falling, to the ground.
Dance Like Snowflakes
(To the Tune of Are you sleeping)
Dance Like Snowflakes
Dance Like Snowflakes
In the air
In the air
Whirling, Twirling snowflakes
Whirling, Twirling snowflakes
Here and there
