Field Day

It was Field Day at school yesterday with games and activities for all the children. The paint and water games went over big. My assignment - helping children make sun hats - was a bit of a bust as most needed hand-over-hand help and there wasn't enough time! Funny that one of the best decorators was a young, mostly non-verbal, gal who could glue and write, independently, skillfully and quickly! Very impressive! Six year-olds have been known to dawdle, normally developing or not. James was most interested in the "spray paint" using water bottles. Unfortunately, his class would have preferred to stay in their room. And they did just that instead of heading to the cafeteria for pizza. Too much stimulation I guess. Too bad, James loves pizza!
