Villa Luna kids = Superheroes in training!
Dear parents,
We started a new exciting topic at Villa Luna this past week – “Superheroes”! We’ve been learning all about different ways of being a superhero, about various skills and abilities that superheroes have, about what’s good and bad, that many superheroes live among us…and even that we can be superheroes too!
We all signed up to “Superhero school” which makes us all superheroes in training ;-) Each morning starts with gentle exercises, stretching, yoga and breathing techniques, because we discovered that we have to be disciplined and calm as well as strong, to be able to save the day.
We’ve also learned some new songs, one of which has become our hero “anthem”. We’ve made goggles and masks, we’ve designed our own superheroes and what skills we would like them to have…and then learned about how we can gain these skills.
We’ve done a number of obstacle courses, both in our gym and outside as well – this has helped us get strong and perfect our balance and coordination. We’ve played some games with a big parachute that has been teaching us to cooperate, and with hoops that have been teaching us to follow rules.
We made a lot of progress during our first week of Superhero school, but we hope we will all be stronger, kinder and wiser when we graduate!
Have a good weekend!
