Gentle Hands

The kids had a blast today at our Virtues Playgroup painting their "gentle hands". They experimented with sponges, toothbrushes, plastic gloves, and fingers and hands too of course. However we were hard-pressed to keep their attention during the finger puppet story of two monkeys who were pinching and pushing each other to get at a banana. Ah well, they are only 2 and very easily distracted.

Artists in the Garage: Tomas, Lawrence and Raina

Here was today's plan...

Theme: Gentleness with each other
Song: "Gentle Old McDonald" by Radha and the Kiwi Kids
Story: "Two Monkeys Sitting in a Tree"
Activity: Painting our gentle hands

Next stop...Helpfulness...and we're going to do a bit of gardening...
