Snack with the Brown Room

Recently, we sent some invitations to the Brown Room to join us for a zoom snack time!  Today was the day for us to meet up!  

Saul brought a lawnmower to share, everyone had a snack, and the Brown Room shared a dinosaur book with us!  We even made plans for a virtual play date "soon".  Thank you Brown Room for taking the time to chat with us!  

Before the Brown Room signed on, Saul and I had been talking about and sharing some flowers that we had each seen around DC recently.  The first thing we noticed was the beautiful bouquet of flowers that the Brown Room had as a centerpiece at their snack table.  They shared a few of the flowers up close, and Saul was able to show them a beautiful purple flower he collected on his walk yesterday.  

Hi Saul! - Sam

Last week, Saul asked if there were brown things in the Brown Room. Today we got to ask them! 

Things that are brown in the Brown Room: Snack table, chairs, the red clay.

The Dragon Costume

We finally finished our dragon costume! It has a special head that you can wear. - Sam 
We’ve got teeth on the dragon! What color are the eyes? - Ines
“Blue. Blue eyes.” - Lily 
What else does it have to have? - Ines
“A chain because it comes to life.” - Lily 
In the story, Saul, if the dragons didn’t have a chain, they would escape. - Sam
“Escape?” - Saul 
We wanted to keep ours in the Brown Room so we made a necklace. - Ines 

Saul shared his lego lawnmower

“I have a lawnmower, but I’m fixing it right now.” - Saul
Saul, how did you make your lawnmower? - Ines
“I have to make it even more longer.” - Saul 
Finlay, what material is he using? - Ines
“Legos!” - Finlay
Finlay is a big fan of legos.  He builds out of legos a lot too. - Ines
Saul, that’s something you have in common with Finlay. - Elyse 
Is your lawnmower broken? - Ines
“No, i just need it to have lights.So this is my lawnmower today. ” - Saul 

Dinosaurs

Did you bring something to share?  - Ines
“Dinosaurs.” - Daniel

“This one is my favorite page. A T-Rex. He’s about to eat the lion. He’s 67. He’s 100. He’s 169.” - Daniel

Making Future Plans

What do we usually do after snack? - Ines
“We’re going to the playground.” - Jade
“Why? Why because you’re playing? Are you going out? i wanna see them play.” - Saul 
You would like to see us play? - Ines
Maybe we can do that another day? - Elyse

What do you think, maybe we can invite Saul another day to see us play.  We can bring the computer outside! - Ines
