Chopping apples

At Apple Blossom, the children and their teachers follow a rhythm -- a comforting daily and weekly routine made up of outdoor and indoor time, focused activities and free play. 

Every Monday morning the children bring a vegetable from home and sit around the outside table to chop them for Tuesday's soup. And every Thursday morning you'll find them cozied up again, peeling and chopping apples for Friday's apple crisp. 

It's such fun to see the same activities performed within the changing of the seasons. In September, tiny heads poked out from sun hats and arms were slathered with sunscreen as they chopped and chatted. And now fresh snow surrounds the happy workers as they sit bundled in woolly layers, smiling with rosy cheeks.
