my class did Humpty Dumpty last week, to start off our Nursery Rhymes theme for this month. we did masks, puppets, role-paying games. but our culminating activity was an egg-hunt last friday. the children were each given one hard-boiled egg to decorate. one of my very helpful assistants blurted out, "wow Henry! your egg is so blue!" yes, his egg was PAINTED blue. thank you, ms. Ha.

during the actual game itself, (we hid the PAINTED eggs on and around the slide) all three of them (my assistants) kept calling out, "find your eggs!" and "hold your eggs! don't break them!"

isn't innocence grand ...we're doing Hey, Diddle, Diddle this week.
