Moon Fun

Our "preschool" theme of the week has been the moon. Having already had a week on the sun and another on stars, I was thinking that a week on the moon might be a bit dull...but I was wrong! We've had a lot of fun learning about all things lunar! (For a fascinating read on this topic, I would recommend Buzz Aldrin's book, "Reaching for the Moon.")





Now every circular food item is an opportunity to review the phases of the moon! First the full moon...


...then a gibbous moon...


Next comes the half moon...


Everybody loves the crescent moon!...

And don't forget the new moon!
