Halloween week at preschool has to be one of my most favorite weeks of the entire year! We did so many fun things this week. And don't be tricked. Most of the things we did combined learning and skills practice with fun, festive experiences!
Our Spooky Spider was fun to put together, but the fan folding of the creepy legs, was quite a tricky skill to master. Folding is a great way to practice using our fine motor skills.
Our Candy Corn Mosaics turned out super cute! We practiced our cutting skills with this project.

I put a special Halloween sensory bin in the science center this week. The preschoolers had a blast scooping, digging and exploring all the different Halloween items in the bin.
Our letter of the week was the Letter B for Boo! I painted each preschooler's foot and we made ghosts. These ghosts will end up in our alphabet book portion of our portfolios. I got the biggest kick out of the preschooler's giggles as I painted their feet. Many of them were quite ticklish!
We culminated our festive week with a Halloween party. Each preschooler dressed up in their costumes. We played Ghost Bingo, watched a special Halloween Max and Ruby, decorated sugar cookies, and made another flying ghost where the kids wrote "Boo" all by themselves. We had an absolute blast learning and celebrating Halloween together. These kids are the best!
