Snow in Virginia Beach!

Believe it or not, we had some snow in Virginia Beach this year!  Although, we didn't have very much snow compared to other areas of the country, it was just enough for school exploration.  In fact, when you play with snow in school, you don't have to get all bundled to go outside!  

The preschoolers had a blast exploring with real snow in our sensory table.  They chopped up some blocks of snow & then made animal prints in the snow with their polar bears & penguins.  Some of the preschoolers even made snowballs and real "snow" cones.  Their imaginations were running wild.  Although the snow didn't last very long indoors, it was definitely COLD while we played with it.  In the end, playing with the snow and watching it melt was a great learning experience for everyone!
