CAR-fting Fun and Learning Together!
This week at Watchful Eye Daycare, we zoomed into fun with car-themed activities! The kids got creative in crafting by making a Traffic Light T (not a T-shirt but the letter T), designing their own License Plates, and creating unique Tire Tracks using toy cars. They even "drove" a cardboard box car, sparking imaginative play!
We also enjoyed delicious snacks like crescent rolls and ice cream during Snack and Observation Time, where the children observed the daycare’s turtle, learning about animals and their behaviors.During Group Playtime, the kids shared toys, listened to stories, and engaged in cooperative games, developing essential social skills and learning how to interact with others.
It’s been a fantastic week full of creativity, exploration, and teamwork!

It’s been a fantastic week full of creativity, exploration, and teamwork!
This week’s car-themed activities ignited creativity and imagination as children crafted a Traffic Light T, designed their own License Plates, and created Tire Tracks using toy cars. These hands-on projects helped improve fine motor skills, color recognition, and creativity. Driving cardboard box cars encouraged pretend play, fostering social interaction and teamwork as kids "drove" around and shared imaginative scenarios.
Sharing toys, listening to stories, and engaging in cooperative games provided opportunities for children to develop social skills, learn teamwork, and practice communication. These moments of interaction were essential in building friendships and teaching kids how to collaborate effectively.
Children enjoyed crescent rolls and ice cream, making snack time both delicious and fun. During this time, they observed the daycare’s turtle, learning about animal behaviors and nature. This activity sparked curiosity and introduced basic observational and scientific thinking.
Professional Development Day!
We use this day to learn new skills to implement in our classrooms, collaborate with others and further develop our expertise. Mr. Kenny came to our centers for First Aid and CPR training. Our teachers took "A Watchful Eye Supervision in the classroom" and "It's All About Timing" classes.
