Learning Sign Language!

Today we had a great time singing and playing! We focused on a number of animal songs today, including Old MacDonald, the highlight of which was when one of the staff members at Jessie's grabbed a bin of small toy animals and we were able to look at each animal, learn the sign language for that animal and then use both the toys and the sign language when we sang. It was a great way to bring together visual cues and vocabulary in 2 different languages--English and sign language! Our parachute time was also well-loved today with the toddler in the crowd running in and out of the parachute the whole time--she was unstoppable!
