Immersed in the preschool world

I'm really enjoying my new job so far... the kids, my coworkers, the schedule, and being able to *play*. This is a little "jungle" I set up on one of our tables this week to try and encourage some creative play when the kids arrived. Of course, they don't need too much help with that.

Tomorrow, I'm unveiling a big surprise for my class- Hermit Crabs! I picked up all the necessities at the pet store tonight and they are ready to crawl anywhere. I'm anticipating a heated debate for naming, and hopefully some in depth study of their eating and behavior habits.
