This morning the children were all engaged in the block area. “This is our
bus!” The children began to call each other by their names to aboard the school
bus. Once all children were on the bus, Kash let the children know that they can "stand on a bus". We then noticed the children were using keys in their play. “What are keys for?” (Isla) “They lock the
door” and “they will turn on the bus” (Carson). Kash then began to
drive the bus and with curiosity we asked “Where is this bus going?” Gabby
eagerly replied by saying, “to school” and Carson added “to the playground”. This
experience caught all our attention as they are beginning to engage in big life
events through play. This allows the children to adapt to changes that are
occurring in their life at a pace that they are comfortable with. We look
forward to further this interest as the weather gets nicer and we can go
outdoors to see if we can spot any buses.
