It’s my turn!

My sisters got to go off to school last week, and today, it’s finally my turn! I am heading off to my very first day of “Mommy & Me” preschool, and I get to play with Mommy there all morning! It’s an introduction to preschool for young kids, and I’m so excited to go this year… as long as they have trains to play with!

Did you ever wonder why a preschooler needs a backpack???? For your trains of course!

Mommy got my very first annual back to school picture in front of school!

When I got to my classroom, my teacher gave me my name tag to put on the board…

and showed me where my very own cubby was to hang up my backpack! Mommy said I did a great job following her directions!

I got straight to work playing with all of the toys…

… Until I found the train table! Thank goodness, because Mommy said she might not make it through if they didn’t have one! I even SHARED the trains with the other boys!!!

After circle time, we headed outside to play, but not before we practiced singing “Put your finger on the wall…”!

I was a bit tired at the end of the day, but it was a great start to school for me!

Our art project today was to make a placemat with our handprints painted on it, but I’m just like mommy was on her first day, and I didn’t feel like painting…

Here was a picture of Mommy’s first day of preschool… she was proud of her “artwork” too!

I think I’m going to have an AWESOME year with Mommy, and can’t wait to see everything I learn!
