We explored shapes, stamps and color. The kids were excited to create with a new artistic media!

We planted lemon grass and pineapple mint in our garden. We loved how easy the soil was to play with after the rain and experiencing the rich scents of the herbs.

Triangle pose!

We made nature sculptures! Each child bought nature items from home and gathered natural wonders from our back yard to create their own unique piece. It was wonderful to watch the kids delight in the sensory quality of the clay.

Here's a few blurry shots from yoga time!

The kids enjoyed making cucumber flowers for snack, but they all got eaten before we got to the snack table!

Love them!

On Monday we made blueberry flax muffins for a Zilker Mama who just had a baby! Oh, how we love to bake in the early morning light!

We usually count to 5 to help take turns mixing, today we counted in English, Spanish and German!

We had an apple taste test to discern different qualities of sweet and sour.

Our panel took this taste test quite seriously and made predictions as to which apples would be sweet or sour and voted for their favorites... Fujis won the day!
