We started off our day by playing a game with some shapes that I cut out, colored, and laminated. Emmy and Spencer both took turns being the "teacher". Emmy knew all the shapes that I gave her with the exception of the octagon and pentagon. And Spencer really surprised me with how much he knew. I was too busy playing with the kids which is why I don't have pictures of that activity.Afterwards, we had our lunch which included a sandwich cut out in a shape of their choice. Emmy wanted a bunny...
...and Spencer had a bear. He was faster than my camera!
The kids got to help make the sugar cookies and each chose 3 different shapes to cut out. It was a bit of a mess to clean up as you can see. 
After I frosted them, the kids helped with the sprinkles. Spencer had a great work and eat technique.
Emmy wouldn't eat hers until it was finished perfectly with every sprinkle in place.
The kids made a mouse out of oval shapes, glued it on the paper and colored it.
They both turned out really cute.
They also glued the shapes into the proper places on their hot air balloons, and then glued on the cotton balls for the clouds. 
Emmy was very proud of her art work.
Our last activity was stamping shapes with paint. Another fun but messy activity.
My refrigerator is covered with all the kids masterpieces! I love that stuff; it makes me smile every time I walk by and see all their pictures. Yesterday I had them make a panda bear using all circles. And I also picked up a great video about shapes that they both really enjoyed watching.
