Juniper and her teacher, Ms. Joycelyn.

Some kids were sad or nervous when their parents dropped them off. Juniper ran to the play kitchen and announced that she wanted to make rice. It was hard to get her attention to say goodbye before we left.

On the other hand, she was a little sad when Aaron came to pick her up; she didn't want to leave. In order to get her out of the classroom, Aaron offered to take her out to the playground for a bit.

Her class spends 45 minutes each day on the playground. We hear that Juniper spent most of her playground time today riding on a tricycle. My public health heart is warmed by the early emphasis on injury prevention - yay, bike helmets!

Apparently, Juniper was having too much fun during school to focus on her lunch. After 15 minutes on the playground with Dad, she announced that she was hungry and proceeded to eat the remainder of her lunch. (Those who know Juniper's eating habits will not be surprised to hear that during lunchtime, she did eat her fruit.)
