Guardaria Time

We have alot of down time at the Guardaria, time to hang out with the "baby teachers" (the teachers in the nursery upstairs), watch/play with kids on the playground, and help teachers in their classrooms.  One of my favorite times of the day has become the time when I get to read to the kids after lunch.  After lunch, we have a good hour and a half block where we are waiting for parents to pick up their kids.  The waiting around can be tough, but a couple weeks ago we started bringing out books and reading to the kids.  It started out in the classroom with the 3 year olds, and it has kind of took off ever since.  My spanish is not that great, but it is improving, especially when I am brought the same stories over again (the current favorite is "Como el Grinch Robó la Navidad.")  One little boy started tearing the classroom apart the other day becuase he was looking for the book that he wanted me to read (he had already given it to me and I had it in my hands outside).  It is starting to get a bit out of hand with ALL the books ending out on the playground, which has led to some of the books getting ripped.  I think we are going to have to lock the doors after we choose our 1-2 books, and then we can go back in and select a couple more when those are finished.  :)  I am looking forward to more days with the kids.t
