Signs of spring are something we are lacking outside right now (especially with the new snow fall just recently that covered up any grass that was even trying to peek out of shovelled areas). So, the children at Susan's are creating "Signs of Spring" themselves - since they aren't coming on their own. Last week they made various crafts around the theme "birds" and "nests". It's always fun to see new nests made and to watch for baby birds to arrive. Last year a robin made her nest right beside Susan's so we were able to see the nest created, the eggs in the nest and see the baby birds hatch. Well at Susan's many little "hatchings" occurred this week as children cut, coloured, pasted, rolled, etc. to make beautiful art projects. We will continue to keep our eyes out for the first real robin (a sure sign of spring)!!
