Preschool Program

Last night Blue Rock's preschool had their end of the year preschool program and pre-K graduation. If Blue Rock's class had superlatives, he would get Most Independent. He is strong-willed and not afraid to do his own thing or challenge someone who thinks differently to him. There are positives to having an independent spirit but it can also being challenging at times.

 

The program consisted of mostly slide shows and all the kids sang several songs together. The program ended with the pre-K students coming down the isle wearing caps and gowns as they celebrated leaving pre-K and going off to kindergarten next year.  All the kids were so cute on the stage!

Blue Rock's school decorated the stage with beautiful balloon displays. They were nice but a huge distraction to my balloon obsessed child. Blue Rock stood there and starred at the big balloons the for pretty much the whole time except when they handed out eggs to shake for one of the songs. He shook his egg and enjoyed that. I wish they would have put him more in the middle next to some of his buddies. I think he would not have starred at the balloons as much. Sadly, they put him on the end where he could easily look at the balloons and be tempted to try and touch them, which he did attempt to do twice. Thankfully this was just a preschool performance and the unexpected is always expected. :) 

 

It's always fun to watch young kids perform. I really thought Blue Rock would have sang really loudly because he always wants to go up front and sing at church and loves singing at home. However, he is one focused child and he really wanted one of the beautiful balloons. You just never know how kids are going to be.

There are really big balloons over there!

He asked us during the songs if he could have a balloon.

He attempted to get one.

Now he's back singing and shaking the egg.
