Winter Weather?

The weather has been very warm lately....more like Spring than Winter.  We have been taking advantage of the nice weather to play outside. We are building strong Gross Motor Skills muscles when we play outside.  Strong Gross Motor Skills make it easier to develop strong Fine Motor Skills- the skills children will need when they are ready to learn to print. 

Playing outside also helps develop Social Skills and Language. Planning, cooperating, and negotiating are all part of building snow creations and playing on the equipment outside.
