I know that I’m several weeks late, but April attended Ean’s preschool party for Valentines day. The kids had a blast playing games and eating cupcakes and cookies. They played with a parachute and silly races. Great fun by all!

Here is some pictures and a couple of video clips to show for you.

From Valentines Day

Back in January, Ean’s preschool went to East of Chicago and made their own personal pan pizzas. The kids absolutely loved getting their hands dirty and decorating their own pizzas with sausage, pepperoni, and cheese.

Check out the pictures below for Ean and his friends.

From Pizza Field Trip

Ean’s preschool class made a trip to the Christian Care retirement community before Christmas to help spread some Christmas cheer and some of their excitement. The kids sang a couple of holiday tunes, handed out cookies that they helped decorate, and show off some of their favorite toys to the residents.

I was really surprised at how open Ean was in sharing and talking to the guests. He tends to shy away from the large crowd type of activities. Maybe he is growing up after all.

Ean had his Winter Party at school and had a blast doing it. The kids all exchanged gifts and even Miss Leslie gave some gifts to the kid.

The kids decorated cookies as well that they were going to hand out at the Christian Care Nursing home (video to come shortly) and they played several games.

Here is picture of Ean and Isabelle:

After the great adventure to the pumpkin patch, where could Lancaster preschool top that? The Walmart Bakery, where the kids get to learn about how they make bread, decorate cake, and they could even decorate their own cupcake and eat it afterwards.

April and I went with Ean for his field trip with his preschool class. We got a chance to meet Ean’s best friend Kline and his “girlfriend” Miss Jorie (the student helper).

From A visit to the Pumpkin Patch

We went to Drennan’s Pumpkin Farm on the south end of Wells County, and we had a chance to go through the Corn mazes, pet and feed some farm animals including turkeys, chickens, goats, sheep, and a midget pony. We also took a hay ride and got to pick our own pumpkins.

The kids were well behaved as could be expected from 4 year olds.

Here is a collection of the pictures from the day:

Ean started preschool on Wednesday for the first time. We thought it was going to be tougher than it was, but tonight he asked us if we could take him to school early so he could play more.

There were a couple of tears as we left him in his classroom, but Ms. Leslie is very nice and took Ean over to the trucks to play as we silently departed.

Mom held back until she was away from Ean and her tears welled up a bit.

We thought it might be impressive if Ean was the first kid to be picked up from preschool in a Limo. All the families just stared as we drove around trying to get close to the door he was coming out.

Here is the video of Ean headed to school:

Here is a video of his posse waiting for him to come out:

Here is the video of him coming out of class and heading back to the car:
