Ping Pong Mania!

     The ping pong ball fun was a great energy release as we were having a long morning waiting for the temperature to warm up to go outside.  We have been going outside after lunch on the days that it was too bitter cold in the morning for play.  This leads to some slow time so I brought out the ping pong balls to liven things up.  The children were practicing their fine motor skills at holding the little ball tight in one hand as they were able to color their balls with pens.  Then the fun began as little balls went bouncing everywhere! It was a musical symphony of ping pong balls!  I thought the sound was interesting and brought a different change to what we normally hear from our balls bouncing around the house.  We were bouncing them off the ground to  reach the ceiling and bounce back down.  Balls were flying behind the TV and under the couch.  I got my exercise that day retrieving the little lost balls!
