Hip Hip Hooray...

It's a Gymboree Day!

Today at Gymboree we learned all about Dogs. Elizabeth absolutely loves dogs...so she was so excited. We started out by making sure our little pet dogs had plenty to eat.


Next, we were off in search of doggie bones. They were hidden all around the room and it was our job to make sure that they all were found. Elizabeth had a great time digging in the "dirt" and collecting bones.


Once we found the bones, we got to bring the back to our pets. Elizabeth loved having the teacher help her give them to the dog puppet.


Elizabeth is such a compassionate little girl. She was so concerned about the dog. She sat right by him the whole time to make sure that he was okay and that all of the children were giving him the bones properly.


Before class was over, we got to have a doggie bath. Each of the children got to scrub the doggie...to make sure he was all clean. Elizabeth loved all of the bubbles in the air. She would scrub away and yell "bubbles".


One of Elizabeth's favorite parts at Gymboree is parachute time. All of the children gather on top of the parachute and have bubble time. We sing songs and create parachute bubbles. Elizabeth loves to run around and pop all of the bubbles.


I love that Elizabeth and I have this time together. She is learning, growing and changing each and every day and I am amazed and blessed to be able to be with her to see it all.
