I worked in our Preschool VBS this year with my friend, Melissa. She has a little boy, Beckett, the same age as Madison and we decided to work in their class, AKA the 1.5-2 year olds. We thought it would to be neat to watch them interact with their friends and do all of the VBS activities. Well, not such a good idea! Our kids were extra clingy all week and wanted to be held by Momma! That is so not how they normally are so we decided that next year we won't be serving in their class! It's not fair to the other kids in the class and they need to go have fun and participate with all of the other kids.
Despite the clinginess, we still had a great time with the kids. We took long buggy rides... Aren't they cute? Can you imagine having a whole buggy of your own? Umm, NO I cannot! And thanks, I don't want to!
We did a little rocking...
We did a little snacking...
We played instruments and listened to music...
We changed a LOT of diapers...
We made some cute crafts...
We beaded some necklaces...
We played outside on the playground...
We listened to stories about Jesus...I was really curious how the kids would respond to story time, but they actually listened really well. The story teachers usually had them do a couple of activities afterwards to pass up time and those were always a little challenging and a bit chaotic. Our kids were just a little bit too small for real games!
One of the activities was to get in a taxi. We only had two takers!
And we hid in the cubbies... This was so cute because we didn't put them there. A few just plopped down there and then we put the rest of the kids in for a very cute photo!
We had a good time this year. Madison and I actually only did VBS up until Wednesday because we left Thursday morning for my cousin, Jennifer's wedding in TX. I didn't mind skipping out two days early. Whew! VBS wears a momma out!!!
